One example is the YouTube video here. As with the live presentations, that link to give feedback is included next to each period.

Giving Feedback: Digital Presentation
The example feedback below is for the presentation embedded to the left. This is teacher-written feedback designed to help students respond to pre-recorded and digital video presentations. BHS faculty, staff, and students can continue to leave feedback for student projects through June 25.
"This is a succinct and effective presentation, and it ends up working well with a voiceover, instead of featuring you as a picture-in-picture. That was a risk I'm glad you took, because it opens the door to other students who might benefit from seeing this kind of authentic presentation.
"The content is interesting and tightly edited. It ends up being engaging without losing a focus on statistics and data, and it was my observation that even students not normally interested in sports were watching closely when given time in class to review this video."
A Note on Valuing the Imperfect
Students were given the option of sharing their final projects. Those who chose this option should be commended for their insight and ingenuity — for the animated YouTube videos, the audio essays, the hybrid presentations that mix live beatboxing with pre-recorded demos.
But not every showcased project looks like that. That is a very good thing. When the work is imperfect, it is authentic. It is what a classroom space truly is — a creative space with the same desultory but encouraging work of any creative space.
Students giving feedback to peers know that collaboration is "the stuff of growth," and that constructive feedback is honest and ameliorative. All stakeholders should keep this in mind.
