M09d - Marking and producing feedback

Note: Entering marks and feedback does not mean that students will know how to access and refer to them. Students may need support and guidance, with accessing and making sense of their feedback.

Good practice expectations at UCL:

A consistent feedback template

Departments are expected to agree on a consistent student feedback template for any given assignment which makes appropriate reference to the marking criteria and explains to students how they can improve their work in future.

UCL assessment platforms offer alternatives for this:

Moodle Assignment Rubric.
Turnitin Assignment Rubric.
Moodle Marking Guide.
Turnitin Grading Form.
Moodle Workshop allows a feedback form to be set up for peer markers.

Depending on the technology you are using, there is a range of ways to give feedback.
