Feedback actionability
Feedback Actionability refers to the mechanisms by which students turn the given feedback information to action. This idea is inline with the new paradigm of educational feedback in which the focus of research and practice has shifted to learner’s actions [1] versus the information they have been given [2]. In their 2020 study, Iraj et al. borrowed a data-driven method from digital marketing and made feedback messages actionable by recrafting the text around a specific action and including an explicit call to action at the bottom of messages which asked students to do a certain learning activity and by clicking directed them to a landing page on LMS. They showed the benefits of applying this approach in discovering previously unknown patterns via predictive models in learning analytics, delving deep into student engagement and narrowing the feedback gap [3].
