Abstract

Generally, providing individual feedback, in the case of large-sized classes, is near impossible or would require disproportionate effort to do so. Generic feedback, instead, has a little value in enhancing students’ learning and their satisfaction. Consequently, the authors of this paper have proposed a novel methodology to overcome the two extremes of such feedback procedures i.e., individual feedback and generic feedback. In this paper, the authors propose a pseudo-personalized feedback mechanism in which the feedback is clustered into several categories according to the correlation in the student response to the assessment. The feedback process is completed in partnership with the students.
