Feedback loops and the longer-term: towards feedback spirals
Open accessAbstract
A key challenge for feedback practice involves promoting student uptake through the closing of feedback loops. This paper investigates feedback loops by using the concepts of single and double-loop learning to interrogate student responses to feedback. Single-loop learning tackles an identified problem or task, whereas double-loop learning additionally re-evaluates how the problem or task is approached. Evidence from a five-year longitudinal enquiry into four undergraduate students’ experiences of feedback is used to analyse feedback loops. Students reported a variety of experiences: failing to engage significantly with end-of-semester comments; short-term uptake within modules which had two assignments; and longer-term efforts at improving their learning strategies. A model of long-term student engagement with feedback is proposed, including single-loop feedback processes, double-loop feedback processes and unresolved learning puzzles. Whereas feedback loops are mainly focused on the shorter-term, it is suggested that feedback spirals represent an alternative way of analysing complex, iterative longer-term learning processes. Implications for practice focus on student self-regulation and the development of student feedback literacy.

“Finally, the third principle responds to recent calls in the literature to shift the emphasis from feedback information toward actions that promote feedback uptake [34,35].”

“The OLPR group showed superior gains in Taking action , likely because its platform design—particularly accessibility and traceability—facilitates the spiral process of feedback-driven learning (Carless 2019).”

“Por ejemplo, Carless (2019) comparte la idea de que el feedback ayuda a cerrar la brecha entre un estado inicial y uno deseable (Ramaprasad, 1983; Sadler, 1989), pero enfatiza el diálogo profesor-alumno y alumno-alumno para lograrlo.”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
