The principles for provision of feedback in the Department of Psychology are transparent, accessible and clearly communicated to students.

• The requirements for all the assignments are stated clearly in the course outline or assignment instruction.
• For some courses, the grading criteria are also shown to students along with most assignments or good samples are posted on Moodle.
• For class quizzes, teachers provide feedback to students within 2 or 3 weeks.
• For class activities such as in-class exercise, tutorial discussion, the lecturer and tutor actively interact with students to provide immediate feedback on their discussion.
• For projects, students are always encouraged to discuss their ideas with the professors/tutors.
• For other coursework assignments, students receive feedback immediately or within an appropriate timeframe depending on the nature of the assignments.
• Weekly consultation hours are set up for individual consultation.
