Abstract

Research demonstrates that the effectiveness of feedback depends on how students engage with it, and that effective engagement with feedback is challenging for many students. To address this problem, the Feedback Engagement Enhancement Tool (FEET) was designed and evaluated. The study incorporated a three-week trial focused on writing with one secondary English class group. The tool was evaluated through teacher interviews, student focus groups, and FEET booklet document analysis. The results showed that the FEET components achieved the theoretical aims of enhancing student engagement with feedback on their writing, although not to the same extent for all students. Students in the trial who reported positive experiences with the FEET used it as intended, indicating the FEET’s potential to enhance student engagement with feedback. The results highlight various potential future modifications and procedural aspects to consider in future FEET use.
