CRADLE Seminar Series - Developing learners’ feedback literacy in and for the workplace - Dr Christy Noble - Academy for Medical
12 September 2023, 2-3.30pm

This seminar is presented by visitng academic Dr Christy Noble who is the Clinical Learning and Assessment Lead in the Academy for Medical Education in the Medical School at The University of Queensland. Her research interests include workplace learning, feedback literacy and assessment literacy.

The value of purposefully developing learners’ feedback literacy to enhance feedback processes is well recognised. As a result, much research has been directed towards conceptual advancement and improving students’ feedback literacy in higher education. Yet, learners in workplaces, such as healthcare, remain dissatisfied with their feedback experiences. Developing learners’ feedback literacy in and for workplace settings holds promise but remains under-explored. To address this gap, we need to understand the contexts where feedback occurs as well as learners’ perspectives, experiences and understanding of feedback and being feedback literate in the workplace. This in turn can inform strategies for developing feedback literacy of learners in the workplace.

Using design-based research (DBR) methods in two studies, we investigated how healthcare students (Study 1) and junior doctors (Study 2) typically engage in feedback and potential opportunities to enhance their feedback engagement. As part of our DBR studies, we also implemented and evaluated several feedback literacy programs for health care students and junior doctors.

In this session, participants will be challenged to consider the relationship between learners’ feedback agency and feedback opportunities in workplace contexts. The nature of this relationship might be an important way to advance the conceptualisation and the development of feedback literacy. While feedback literacy can be supported through targeted education, our findings raise questions for understanding how workplace environments afford and constrain learner feedback engagement. We also challenge the extent to which contextual feedback know-how can be ‘developed’ purposefully outside of everyday work.
This session will be held at Deakin Downtown, Level 12, Tower 2, 727 Collins Street, Docklands and online.
