Timing

Lecturers are expected to mark your work and provide feedback on your assessment within three weeks of submission (or one week for Summer School papers) and at least one week before the final examination (if there is one).

All 100-level papers should include a small assessment worth no more than 15% within the first two weeks of a paper. This is to help you get engaged with the paper early on, receive feedback from your lecturer, and figure out if the paper is a good fit for you. You will get feedback in time to change papers before the two-week withdrawal deadline.

Feedback should

offer guidance that helps you understand what you have done well and not so well, what you need to improve, and how you might better meet the learning outcomes. Lecturer comments should prompt you to evaluate your own learning and then adapt your learning strategies for the future.

It is important to review the feedback that is given on your assessments so that you can learn and improve for future assessments.

Finding and understanding your feedback

See the help pages for more detail on what feedback looks like in Turnitin Feedback Studio.

Ask your lecturers if there is any feedback that you do not understand or if you can’t find your feedback.

You can also book a consultation with Student Learning if you’d like more tips on what to do better next time.
