Feedback dilemmas are not just problems to tackle but opportunities to innovate, including with GenAI

#edtech How can I promote feedback seekers 👉🏻 "if we want students to be pro-active participants in #feedback processes, it helps if they see teacher role models of generating and using feedback information" scape.edu.hku.hk/feedback-seeki…

@smartinmot2014 Research on feedback over the last 20 years suggests that in mass undergraduate higher education "deep, empathetic, and contextual features of human feedback" were seldom feasible 🙄

#edtech "The study advocates for a hybrid approach, leveraging the scalability of AI while retaining the deep, empathetic, and contextual features of human #feedback" #abstract" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10…

All rejected papers share one common flaw: a weak discussion section. I know because I used to write them too. If you're stuck on the discussion section, wondering how to tie it all together, this is for you:

Great to meet with @CarlessDavid yesterday in Hong Kong to talk about feedback and the development of expertise. He offered the observation that medicine, architecture and teaching are the fields most interested in feedback.

#edtech "It is a must-read for educators, researchers, and academic developers in higher education who will benefit from a guide to feedback research and practice that addresses well recognised challenges in relation to assessment and feedback" Not only higher education 😉

Professor Clarence Green has been awarded the Research Output Prize 2024-25 for the article co-authored with Dr Kathleen Keogh: doi.org/10.1111/1467-9… More details: web.edu.hku.hk/news/ROP2024-25 Congratulations to Professor Green on his achievement! #HKU #HKUEducation #literacy

#edtech "fostering constructive #feedback environments that provide actionable information and acknowledge students’ prior achievements encourage students’ autonomy to seek feedback" More 👇🏻 scape.edu.hku.hk/how-do-student…

Your paper isn't getting rejected because your research is bad. Here's what actually gets papers rejected ⤵️ Your literature review is outdated Copying and paraphrasing old reviews? Editors spot this instantly. They want fresh citations from the last 2-3 years. You're working on exhausted topics When 1000+ papers already exist on your topic, your work needs something genuinely new. First movers get published. Fast followers get cited. Your sample is too small or convenient Student samples? Snowball sampling? Convenient sampling? Desk rejection. Premier journals demand robust methodology. No theoretical contribution Data without theory = rejection. Your findings need to advance how we understand the phenomenon. You're defending instead of revising Getting a revise-and-resubmit is rare (5-7% of submissions). Treat reviewer comments like gold. Implement them. Don't defend. The 3 things that changed my acceptance rate: → Mixed methods over single studies → Multiple experiments in one paper → Including co-authors with complementary expertise Publishing isn't about being perfect. It's about being strategic! What's been your biggest publishing challenge? 1/6

Assessment can and should be for learning. At its best, it should be energizing and motivating.
