Academic feedback practice - a scholarly approach

• Feedback is at the centre of academic practice and ever present in our daily work as academics. We give feedback on student work at different levels; on PhD students at their defense of their thesis; of colleagues submitting manuscripts to journals or applications for funding; in the process of employing new academics. However, what we do when we engage in feedback, and how we do it is seldom problematized in public. It is expected of us that we as academic professionals know how to do it, how much, how explicit and what to focus on. Sometimes we have clear criteria for what to put our emphasis on, but often this is never made explicit. In the talk I aim to discuss academic feedback and draw on research on feedback in higher education to present a possible way of approaching feedback from a scholarly perspective.
