Join us for an engaging webinar hosted by FeedbackFruits, in collaboration with Jisc and Durham University, exploring innovative approaches to peer review and peer feedback in higher education.

In this session, we will showcase how Durham University has successfully embedded FeedbackFruits’ Feedback and Assessment learning activities into their teaching and learning practices. By integrating these activities effectively within their learning management system, Durham has empowered students to engage in meaningful dialogue, foster critical thinking, and take ownership of their learning through structured peer-to-peer interaction.

Join Malcolm Murray, Head of Digital Learning at Durham University, as he explores how the new FeedbackFruits Learning Design Studio (LDS) enables educators to create modular peer feedback activities that adapt to student needs. The session will highlight research-backed peer review strategies that enhance fairness and accommodate varied submission timelines.

Malcolm will demonstrate how Durham used the LDS to design flexible, reusable learning experiences by seamlessly combining multiple pedagogical activities into scalable learning journeys. Learn how these strategies boosted student performance, encouraged earlier engagement, and created impactful, modular learning experiences aligned with real-world skills.

Creating truly inclusive learning environments where students feel seen, supported and empowered starts with intentional learning design. By proactively designing courses for students’ variability, institutions can increase student success and give learners the impetus and agency to be co-responsible in their own learning.  

In this session, Nu Driz (he/him), Founder of Driz Learning Design, and Sam Passeport (she/her), Founder of No Borders Learning, will explore how to implement elements of Universal Design for Learning to structure courses that prioritize accessibility and belonging. This session will also showcase use-cases of how these principles can be integrated using the FeedbackFruits Learning Design System, supporting students’ engagement in their education.

In today's rapidly evolving educational landscape, traditional assessments are no longer enough to measure learning progress. With ever-increasing capabilities to create output with technology like Generative AI, it's crucial that we rethink how we teach and assess learning. In this webinar, Dr. Robert Hammond, Associate Professor and Director of the Center for Marketing and Sales Innovation at the University of South Florida, will explore the need to shift from focusing on assessment outputs to assessing the learning process itself. Learn how timely and strategic feedback at critical inference points can guide students' development, improve engagement, and enhance learning outcomes.

Join us for a dynamic discussion on practical strategies for moving from output-based assessments to evaluating critical thinking and the learning process.

As the workforce evolves, higher education must go beyond content delivery to equip students with essential skills and competencies that help them thrive in their future professions. Problem-based learning (PBL) and Soft skills development are essential strategies for fostering adaptability, collaboration, and real-world readiness.

Join us as we discuss evidence-based strategies for designing engaging learning experiences that foster collaboration, adaptability, and lifelong learning. Learn from experts in learning design and pedagogy about how to create meaningful, applied learning opportunities that help students succeed beyond the classroom.

Student engagement is one of the biggest challenges in online education. Collaborative learning has been proven to enhance participation, retention, and achievement—but how do you implement it effectively within your LMS?

In this session, Elissa Baker, Director of Online Learning at Hudson Valley Community College and Zsombor Szabo, will demonstrate how FeedbackFruits can transform your LMS into a collaborative, interactive learning space. You’ll gain insights into the pedagogical benefits of collaborative learning and see how tools like social annotation, team-based learning, and peer evaluation can foster deeper engagement.

As artificial intelligence becomes increasingly integrated into educational practices, its potential to transform assessment and grading is undeniable—but where should the line be drawn? This panel will bring together experts in educational technology and higher education to explore the ethical, practical, and pedagogical implications of AI in education. Through a balanced discussion, the session will cover key issues such as authentic assessment, AI's role in supporting versus replacing educators, and navigating compliance with emerging regulations like the EU AI Act.

With student enrollments declining across Norway yet online courses gaining unprecedented popularity, the future of higher education hangs in the balance. Are institutions prepared to adapt?

This panel brings together experts from OsloMet, NTNU, and FuN to explore how we can create meaningful and impactful learning experiences that truly meet students' needs.We’ll debate the effectiveness of online versus traditional education, with a special focus on how active learning strategies can enhance engagement and outcomes in digital environments. Join us for an honest, thought-provoking discussion about the challenges, opportunities, and the way forward for higher education in Norway.

Join our webinar to learn how John Brown University successfully implemented active learning for student-centered course design. Together with Kim Johnson, Instructional Designer at John Brown University, we will discuss practical strategies and real-world examples of leveraging FeedbackFruits solutions to create active learning environments that enhance engagement, foster collaboration, and deliver impactful outcomes.

Gamified Peer Review is an activity that positions students as collaborative partners in the learning process. Peer Review enables students to provide structured feedback on each other’s work, and our gamified approach adds medals, experience points (XP), and leaderboards to enhance motivation and engagement.

In this session, Freyja Sigurðardóttir discusses the potential of Gamified Peer Review to encourage students to take charge of their own learning, while supporting their peers by providing them with feedback, and outline best practices how to implement it with the FeedbackFruits Peer Review tool.

This session focuses on the summative use of peer assessment in group work, and how instructors can individualize group grades in peer assessment in an effective way.

Moving from student centered to human centered learning has been a journey formed by feedback: from students, teachers, and inclusion specialists. One of the ways we can shift our classroom culture is to change the way we approach the syllabus. Often called a “contract of the course,” the syllabus document serves many purposes. Erica and Sarah discuss how and why they coach instructors to recenter their course environment to prioritize human interactions by addressing their values and inviting students to participate in building the syllabus document.

In an era where generative AI is increasingly prevalent in higher education, especially in online programs, there is a pressing need to rethink how learners are assessed. This reassessment is crucial not only to limit the overreliance on these tools but also to promote deeper student engagement in the learning process. One promising approach to addressing these challenges is formative evaluation, particularly through self-assessment. By requiring learners to produce reflective, personal writing, the motivation to rely on generative AI diminishes, while their personal commitment to their education grows. Since self-assessment, as noted earlier, is formative in nature and not tied to formal grading, the temptation to use AI or engage in dishonest practices is further reduced.

In this session, The ESSEC team presents the implementation of self-assessment through FeedbackFruits in their flagship SPOC, “Diversity & Inclusion in the Workplace”, which has yielded high-quality results, showcasing a marked improvement in learner engagement compared to previous course iterations.
