On Thursday 17 November at 19.30 CET, BELTA is hosting a webinar on Feedback Toolkit by Dalia Ashraf.
The webinar is free and open to all. Dalia's presentation will take about 45 minutes. After that there will be 15 minutes for questions.

Abstract

Feedback can have negative or positive influence on the learning process. Teachers always focus on the corrective form of feedback aiming at improving their learners’ language accuracy, but they are oblivious to the fact that corrective feedback might demotivate the students if given insensitively.
This session investigates the other interrelated purposes of feedback along with the correction purpose. Motivating learners, improving fluency and developing an autonomous learner should be objectives to consider achieving when giving feedback. In the light of the aforementioned objectives, there are some decisions that educators need to take to ensure giving effective feedback. Teachers need to decide when and how to give feedback as well as what to focus on in feedback; they also need to use a variety of feedback techniques according to the task type.
This session will focus on when and how to give feedback to ensure its sufficiency and effectiveness, types of feedback and some feedback techniques.
