Abstract

Feedback is a central aspect in the production process of any text, but especially in the case of the Final Year Projects (FYP). In this context, the objective of this research was to describe the feedback process during the writing of FYPs in Computer Science Engineering in two Spanish variations, one Chilean and the other Spanish. We carried out a qualitative study with a descriptive scope. We identified the techniques, dimensions involved in the feedback, the agents, and the moment in which feedback was carried out, using questionnaires, semi-structured interviews and students and supervisors of this discipline in both contexts. The elements analyzed allowed us to account for the differences in the conception of feedback in the two Spanish variations studied.
