Can assessment-specific marking criteria and electronic comment libraries increase student engagement with assessment and feedback?

“…Our project took up the call for further research, building on the findings from the literature. Rather than simply pointing out errors in student work, ideal feedback would be personal (Beaumont, O'Doherty, and Shannon 2011) and would establish a dialogue between students and markers (Moscrop and Beaumont 2017). Although the dialogue need not be in person, students agreed that it should allow markers to pose questions and suggest further lines of enquiry that students could pursue in their own time.…”
