This webinar examines how generative AI tools such as ChatGPT can be used to provide formative feedback on student writing in higher education contexts. It explores how teachers can guide AI responses through the use of clear assessment criteria, annotated sample papers, and written performance expectations to ensure feedback is consistent and pedagogically meaningful. Practical examples will illustrate how AI-generated comments can support students’ revision processes and enhance the efficiency of feedback practices. The session will also consider key limitations, including issues of reliability, validity, and the need for teacher oversight. Participants will gain a clear understanding of how AI tools can complement human expertise rather than replace it. The webinar aims to offer evidence-informed insights and practical strategies for integrating AI into assessment and feedback processes responsibly.
