This module is designed to support instructor training on best practices for responding to college student writing across the disciplines. The module shares resources on feedback practices, as well as activities to help instructors practice using these practices to build a toolkit of strategies for effective response. Strategies discussed include: Limit feedback so as not to overwhelm students. Don't underestimate the value of praise to motivate and support student writing. Make sure feedback is appropriate for the assignment type and stage. As well, this module includes the following materials:Two sets of slides presenting effective feedback strategies.Self-assessment on responding to student writing.Feedback practice activity.Feedback peer review.Evaluating and revising comments activity.

Students learn about homeostasis and create models by constructing simple feedback systems using Arduino boards, temperature sensors, LEDs and Arduino code. Starting with pre-written code, students instruct LEDs to activate in response to the sensor detecting a certain temperature range. They determine appropriate temperature ranges and alter the code accordingly. When the temperature range is exceeded, a fan is engaged in order to achieve a cooling effect. In this way, the principle of homeostasis is demonstrated. To conclude, students write summary paragraphs relating their models to biological homeostasis.

This resource is a video abstract of a research paper created by Research Square on behalf of its authors. It provides a synopsis that's easy to understand, and can be used to introduce the topics it covers to students, researchers, and the general public. The video's transcript is also provided in full, with a portion provided below for preview:
"Help from a co-worker is generally viewed as a good thing. But that isn’t always the case. Researchers are exploring an often-ignored form of help that is not always welcomed by those receiving it. It’s called anticipatory help. Anticipatory help is when an employee anticipates the needs of a co-worker and offers or provides help on a task without being asked to do so. That anticipatory help is unsolicited is what distinguishes it from reactive help, which is assisting a co-worker who has explicitly asked for help. According to the team behind the study, a prevailing viewpoint in organizational scholarship is that employees who help their co-workers generally receive positive reactions. But this perspective is based on research that has not deliberately differentiated the outcomes of anticipatory helping from reactive helping..."
