Making the most of feedback 13 February 2019

When it comes to improving your work sometimes knowing what to do with your tutor’s feedback is tricky. In this workshop we will discuss some common types of feedback and suggest both quick fixes and ways of making more substantial shifts. Come and discuss study journeys with others from different subjects and levels and pick up new ideas about using feedback.

The session will run twice - from 7 to 8pm and from 8.30 to 9.30pm, and will be held online, in the Student Hub Live online room.

Please note you will need a ticket to attend event. The tickets will become available on 30th January 2019.
