In this activity

  • This activity is designed for the final round of feedback on student storytelling videos, though it can be adapted for any stage where video feedback is desired.
  • The focus is on leadership storytelling skills, but the topic can be adjusted to fit the objectives of your course.
  • Pre-defined feedback criteria target key aspects of video presentation, and can be modified or expanded as needed.
  • Self-assessment is enabled so students first evaluate their own video using the criteria, helping them become familiar with the expectations before reviewing peers.
  • Feedback-on-feedback is enabled, allowing students to rate and comment on the usefulness of feedback they received from peers.
  • Reviewer anonymity is enabled, promoting honest and unbiased feedback, though this setting can be adjusted if preferred.
