Empowering students with a critical and collaborative space

In this activity

This template asks students to use the Plus Delta method of feedback. This is a feedback framework that provides a structured approach to assess strengths and weaknesses, allowing for constructive feedback and continuous improvement. The name “plus-delta” refers to two key components of the evaluation: the “plus” represents positive aspects or successes, while the “delta” denotes areas that need improvement or changes.
This template includes instructions for guided reviews to ensure constructive interactions. It focuses on psychological safety on a team and encourages students to make sure their feedback makes it safe for their team to be vulnerable, speak-up, experiment, and grow.
Self-assessment is enabled so students will start with assessing their own work first.
There are 2 rubrics included focused on: Core Team Skills & Project Management that will help students assess each other effectively. You can add and/or change these criteria to fit your desired activity breakdown.
An optional reflection step is included, allowing students to consider how engaging in the discussion influenced their understanding and perspective on the topic.
Anonymity is off so that it can spark constructive discussion and reflection.
