Oral feedback
Feedback works in three directions:
Pupil to teacher – teacher receiving feedback from pupils about their learning.
Pupil to pupil – in peer assessment.
All of these are important, necessary and very clearly interlinked. In offering oral feedback the teacher should model the language of feedback that pupils can then employ themselves
Some advantages of oral feedback to pupils
Immediate and context-specific – able to deal with misconceptions as they occur and in the context of the specific learning.
Dynamic and adaptable – allows for exchange of ideas and is adaptable to respective learning needs at the point of receiving.
Ongoing – a continuous and familiar part of a lesson.
Episodic – a lesson can be punctuated with plenary moments to structure learning with reference to the objectives threaded through the lesson.
Stimulating – oral feedback can encourage, enthuse and stimulate.
Personalised – facial expressions and body language enhance feedback.
Versatile – questioning, modelling and explaining can all be used as means of providing feedback.
Motivating – pupils like immediate oral feedback and respond easily as the learning is fresh, and quick improvements build a feeling of success.
