Summary

As summative assessment, especially in the form of grading, is indispensable, teachers have to think about and apply the pros and cons of grading so that the students can deduce sufficient guidance for their further learning. As this is not done with short written feedback beside the grade – such as “good work” – teachers have to think about the form of feedback and above all about the place where to express their hints for the learner in question. The following section presents some basic suggestions about how and where to apply written feedback in combination with grading (i.e. in the margin column) with the help of a rubric or working with a cover sheet.
