As we noted in week 1, ongoing, formative feedback is critical to effective course design and the blended learning environment offers multiple ways to provide and collect feedback, including online surveys, discussion boards, and synchronous online or face-to-face activities.<\/p>\r\n
Gathering and responding to feedback from students can help us measure how the course is going, give us the opportunity to improve and refine our teaching, and can help us make these adjustments during the course with current student needs in mind.<\/p>\r\n\r\n
The most informal level of evaluation might be to ask participants for their brief, qualitative feedback on the session. An example is a simple, three-question Stop \/ Start \/ Continue sheet <\/a>or something like it. This type of formative feedback opportunity could be especially useful if you are gathering feedback for changing your behaviour\/content in future sessions.<\/p>\r\n These types of informal feedback sheets can be anonymous if desired.<\/p>\r\n\r\n Many of us are used to feedback forms - often called \"smile sheets\" that are given out at the end of a session. This kind of form asks participants for their opinion about how the session went and their satisfaction with it.<\/p>\r\n Question areas could include how the participant felt about:<\/p>\r\n\r\n the content and activities of the session, including materials<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t the pace of the session<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t your own facilitation of the session<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n \t how they might apply their learning from the session to their own situation<\/p>\r\n<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n Please review Requesting Formative Feedback from Learners <\/a>and consider:<\/p>\r\n\r\n As we noted in week 1, ongoing, formative feedback is critical to effective course design and the blended learning environment offers multiple ways to provide and collect feedback, including online surveys, discussion boards, and synchronous online or face-to-face activities.<\/p>\n Gathering and responding to feedback from students can help us measure how the course is going, give us the opportunity to improve and refine our teaching, and can help us make these adjustments during the course with current student needs in mind.<\/p>\n The most informal level of evaluation might be to ask participants for their brief, qualitative feedback on the session.
