Locate three digital resources that could be utilized when evaluating student work and discuss in your blog how these resources would enhance the level of specific feedback offered to students.
Three ways I plan to provide immediate feedback and evaluation for students are:
Peer Feedback--if students are aware that their peers will be reviewing their work, then they are more likely to put forth more effort. In addition, when reviewing other students' assignments, they will have to think about the assignment in order to provide quality feedback. This would work with a blog posting. Students could review their classmates work through a comment at the bottom of the post.
Recorded feedback--through the use of Evernote, the instructor could record specific feedback for students on projects and then send the recording to students via email. This would be beneficial for students because they would have the opportunity to hear fluctuations in voice and determine tone (which isn't available through written comments alone). Steps for this process using Evernote can be found here.
Weekly summative posts--can also be used in an online learning environment in which students regularly use the discussion board for learning. The weekly post could be created by the instructor to provide a summative review of the week and/or topic, provide resources for further research, and also specifically list student kudos and challenges. This would let students know the instructor is watching and also encourage students to continue hard work or to strive to do better next week.
