Summary
In order to benefit as much as possible from feedback, students must be involved in important decisions. To achieve a useful level of involvement, students should participate in classroom discources as much as possible. Furthermore, teachers should apply the strategy “No hand up, except for asking a question” and recur to cold calling so that every student has to think about the tasks and activities. The main areas for learner involment are suggestions for learning objectives, fixing success criteria, and using rubrics. Advanced learners can also try to redesign a lesson.
