Prof Dr Margarete Imhof, Franziska Ohl, MSc, and Sebastian Laube, MSc work in the Institute for Psychology, and there specifically in the Department of Psychology in Education at Johannes Gutenberg-Universität Mainz in Germany. They are members of the feedback portfolio project, supporting lecturers and students in their department with the creation of portfolios.

Franziska, Margarete, and Sebastian are strong believers in portfolios and how they can empower students in becoming reflective practitioners, engage meaningfully in feedback processes, and ultimately be good teachers. In this episode, in particular, they talk about their feedback practices, the use of templates, and how collaboration amongst students and also with lecturers can be scaffolded.
