Article: How to use technology to provide feedback

Rate: 5

Something that really caught my attention for this reading is that we can use technology to give feedback  using different tools like screen capture that acts like a video camera, recording the assignment as the marker highlights aspects of the work while making audio comments.

I like the point that teachers can give feedback in a shorter time using screen capture and this can be very personal is how the student is next to the teacher.  This kind of feedback is not based in the traditional way which is only based on text.  The article mention Screen capture tool that is very interesting and complicated at the same time. It´s interesting because the students can see the teacher correcting their mistakes and listen to what the teacher is saying about, but is complicated because if the student want to ask something or clarify any doubt its impossible because just can see, analyze and listen to the teacher comments or corrections.

Something that really liked too was that besides personal feedback, teachers can make feedback for a whole class or a group´s students about the mistakes that all of them are having.

Finally I also learned an effective way to track my student to get progress toward learning goals that will inform the feedback I give them. As teachers we are very lucky in these days having access to tools that make the process easier.
