| Though focused on the specific issue of students’ responses to feedback, Gravett and Winstone’s research gives a clear and comprehensive overview of the kind of work that learning developers do. It demonstrates the differing perspectives of academic work that discipline staff, students and learning developers hold. It discusses the ways in which the Learning Developer responds to the challenges of this ambiguity and uncertainty in ways that straddle the balance of increased confusion and unwarranted certainty on the part of the student. This text represents an excellent snapshot of the day-to-day questions, concerns and challenges that a learning developer must engage with. |
