With Nicola Jones, Athena Professional, Dr Emily Henderson (Associate Professor Reader, Education Studies)

In this session, we will consider how to do something which most people find really difficult; giving feedback. Whether feedback is positive or challenging, what are the things that make it more likely to be well-received by your students? How do you actually say what needs to be said? And how do you sustain the supervisor-supervisee relationship once feedback has been delivered?

We will also discuss when and how to be facilitative. Is it always the right approach?

At the end of this session participants will have:

• • Discussed why feedback matters
  • Demonstrated use of a feedback model to:
    • • Endorse positive behaviour
      • Challenge behaviour
  • Considered when a facilitative approach is appropriate
  • Identified what a facilitative approach looks like
