Spent time writing feedback for students but not sure if they're engaging with it?
...
- The MyFeedback Report gives an overview of when students ' engaged with each instance of the feedback given via Moodle (except Turnitin).
- The Turnitin inbox displays a column which tells staff whether or not students have looked at their feedback for over 30 seconds.
Here's how to monitor the most basic aspect of engagement with feedback - whether or not they students have looked at it.
- Choose one of your Turnitin or Moodle assignments with a feedback release date in the future (ideally before Easter) and where where markers are providing feedback within Turnitin or Moodle.
- In your diary, make a note to check it one day, one week and one month after the feedback release date.
- On each date, check according to the instructions below. Record the data somewhere so you can find it again. It will also help to make a note of the size of the cohort, and how they received notice that feedback was available, and support with what to do with it. You can use this data as a benchmark and compare future cohorts with it.

Here is an example of a Turnitin assignment which denotes whether students have viewed the feedback area. (The icon may not display if students have visited the feedback area for less than 30 seconds).
MyFeedback Report
The date that students viewed the feedback from an assessment is displayed in Moodle's MyFeedback report, allowing tutors to easily determine if and when their comments has have been viewed. Feedback that has not been viewed has a cross displayed beside it.
Moodle

...
you can speculate (and then triangulate by asking students, if
...
you wish to).
