As part of the digital portfolio initiative, a large, urban post-primary school in the west of Ireland is using Google Classroom as a virtual learning environment in order to design, create and set tasks and assignments for learners. The teacher has created, set and assigned an essay assignment through Google Classroom, based on volcanos. Learners have submitted their essays over the course of two weeks. Using the Chrome extension, Talk and Comments - Voice notes anywhere, the teacher provides effective feedback to the learners that they can then listen to at any stage. Learners also have the ability to use this extension in order to reply to the teacher with an audio comment.

A medium-sized, rural Gaelcholáiste in Leinster is using MS Teams as their VLE to engage in blended learning. Teachers create, set and assign tasks using the assignments function in MS Teams. Once learners have submitted a task, the teachers use the comments feature to give specific, effective and iterative feedback. Teachers also use the overall feedback feature to give a summary of learners' work once fully complete and submitted.
