  3. Motivating Students “We are becoming a visually motivated society. For many, understanding of the world is being accomplished, not through words, but by reading images” (Lester,2006:415).

  4. Research Findings for Feedback UK National Student Survey (since 2005) “consistently negative reaction from students towards tutor feedback” THE (Times Higher Education), July 31st 2008 “Lecturers’ feedback efforts ‘misguided’” HEA (Higher Education Academy)  “receives more requests for help to improve thesystem of feedback in universities than on any other issue”

Benefits of the Technology • Feedback is both auditory and visual • Highly motivating for students • More relevant and detailed comments • Good rapport between teacher & student • Student feels privileged having their teacher’s voice and advice at their fingertips • Easier to decode than lengthy written comments for L2 learners • All Students excited and willing to participate • ubiquitous “facebook” usage translates to wider coverage & no technology hurdles for students

  13. Hurdles to Overcome • competent usage of software • funding for Camtasia $179 education licence (Screentoaster, Faststone, BBFlashback, Camstudio, Captivate, Fraps, Hypercam: none as good or as easy to use as Camtasia) • potential system conflicts (Mac versus Windows, Office 2007 versus 2003, PDF, RaR decompression AVi-MP4-Slow upload times etc) • Potential students as “Luddites” (rare)
