Managebac Essentials and efficiencies:

providing feedback on tasks

J-Lo's Google-doc Efficiency hack!

In this short screencast, Jeff shares how you can provide links to detailed feedback in a Google-doc.

'lazy man's live feedback'!

In this short 'lessson observation' you can see Joe delivering feedback on a live formative assessment task ('comments only'). Joe comments: "You could call this 'lazy man's feedback'... but, for me, it accomplishes two essentials: 1) deliver high-quality feedback in a timely fashion - i.e. immediately after the performance of understanding 2) Capture the essentials of this in Managebac and draw students attention to this. The third 'lazy man' bonus is this: I am doing nothing extra outside of class, reducing my (and the students') screen-time; imperative at this time."
