Bowing to the Doubters (and Maybe They’re Right): Anonymous Student Feedback

Maybe I was wrong. Maybe asking learners to give honest feedback with their names attached is too idealistic. So a colleague opined.

I want their feedback on these new learning experiences to be taken seriously, so I started a new experiment:

On our class Moodle, I created a “dummy” class member, gave students his/her username and password, and told them to be constructive but totally honest critics of everything good, bad, and ugly about what is happening in our learning world.

I’ll let you know what I hear. So far, three respondents have used the anonymous route, and they sound no different from the prior, identified comments. But we’ll see.

Now I’m taking the day off and going to the ballet: Romeo and Juliet, downtown Seoul :)
