Improved oral feedback framework

The oral feedback framework gives teachers a scaffold when assessing student programs and checking their understanding.


Oral feedback

Our twenty-five years of teaching programming has shown that oral feedback is far more effective than written feedback for programming; but what questions should you be asking students when assessing their work? How do you check their understanding and ensure they make progress?

That’s where our oral feedback framework has been giving teachers an advantage as we’ve done the hard work for you. Version 2 of our popular guide is now available and it’s even easier to use.

Still based on a simplified Shulte’s block model of program comprehension, this latest version guides you more thoroughly through marking, checking understanding and setting actions.

The best part is it is free for everyone and works with all schemes of learning whether you are using Time2Code or an alternative scheme.

Until next time, it is always a good time to code!
