Abstract

Undergraduate students are generally dissatisfied with current feedback practices. Feedback is a crucial element of the learning process, leading to calls for increased attention on the development of the feedback literacies of students and staff. While there is growing literature base with regards to working with students as partners, the focus of this appears to be on learning and teaching, with a lack of specific focus on feedback. An under-researched area in the field of Students as partners (SaP) is the development of learning-oriented feedback practice and feedback literacy. This narrative literature review explores the current landscape of working with undergraduate students as partners, with a specific focus on learning-oriented feedback. Benefits include shared ownership, enhanced engagement and improved wellbeing, while barriers involve existing institutional structures and equity of opportunity. However, the extent to which educators in HE are working with students as partners in the feedback process remains unclear.
