Feedback is one of the most powerful tools in education, and one of the most inconsistently delivered. For students from underrepresented, international, and first-generation backgrounds, well-intentioned feedback often fails to close the gap between comment and improvement, leaving students confused rather than clearer on what to do next.
The Feedback Gap argues that this failure is not a wording problem. It is a design problem, and an equity problem.
Drawing on the author's research into nursing students' lived experience of assessment feedback, this book introduces the Ajibade Theory of Equitable Assessment (ATEA), a middle-range theory built around six interdependent pillars: Accessibility, Assessment Belonging, Dialogue, Feedforward, Learner Agency, and Responsible Innovation, all oriented toward a single organising purpose: Educational Justice.
Rather than offering another checklist of marking tips, this book repositions assessment itself as one of the most powerful, and least examined, levers for advancing equity in higher education. Readers will find:
- The philosophical and theoretical foundations underpinning ATEA
- Practical application across curriculum design, practice learning, and institutional leadership
- Extension of the theory into digital and AI-supported assessment contexts
- Tools for auditing, redesigning, and evaluating feedback practice at module and programme level
- A complete architecture connecting theory, evidence, and institutional change
Written primarily from a nursing and healthcare education perspective, the principles offered here are relevant to any discipline committed to closing attainment gaps and building assessment systems that serve every learner, not just those who already know how to decode them.
For nurse educators, programme leaders, assessment designers, and anyone asking whether their feedback actually reaches the students who need it most.

Information regarding the right of withdrawal
Statutory right to withdraw
You have the right to withdraw from this contract within 14 days without giving any reason.
The withdrawal period will expire after 14 days from the day on which you acquire, or a third party other than the carrier and indicated by you acquires, physical possession of the last good or the last lot or piece.
To exercise the right of withdrawal, electronically fill in and submit a clear statement on our website, under "My Purchases" in "My Account". We will communicate to you an acknowledgement of receipt of such a withdrawal on a durable medium (e.g. by e-mail) without delay.
To meet the withdrawal deadline, it is sufficient for you to send your communication concerning your exercise of the right of withdrawal before the withdrawal period has expired.
Effects of withdrawal
If you withdraw from this contract, we will reimburse to you all payments received from you, including the costs of delivery (except for the supplementary costs arising if you chose a type of delivery other than the least expensive type of standard delivery offered by us).
We may make a deduction from the reimbursement for loss in value of any goods supplied, if the loss is the result of unnecessary handling by you.
We will make the reimbursement without undue delay, and not later than 14 days after the day on which we are informed about your decision to withdraw from this contract.
We will make the reimbursement using the same means of payment as you used for the initial transaction, unless you have expressly agreed otherwise; in any event, you will not incur any fees as a result of such reimbursement.
We may withhold reimbursement until we have received the goods back, or you have supplied evidence of having sent back the goods, whichever is the earliest.
You shall send back the goods or hand them over to California Books, Fort Wayne, Indiana, U.S.A., without undue delay and in any event not later than 14 days from the day on which you communicate your withdrawal from this contract to us. The deadline is met if you send back the goods before the period of 14 days has expired. You will have to bear the direct cost of returning the goods. You are only liable for any diminished value of the goods resulting from the handling other than what is necessary to establish the nature, characteristics and functioning of the goods.
Exceptions to the right of withdrawal
The right of withdrawal does not apply to:
- The delivery of newspapers, journals or magazines with the exception of subscription contracts; and
- The supply of digital content which is not supplied on a tangible medium (e.g. on a CD or DVD) if you accepted when you placed your order that we could start to deliver it, and that you could not withdraw once delivery had started.
