”I was surprised that I was comfortable with the
new audio style feedback, it definitely was convenient for me, and that I was able to gauge the
lecturers feelings of my work as it was a private conversation
rather than in class”
“you can hear what areas of your essay you did well in and what areas you can improve upon for future essay submissions, in relation to the
content, structure and referencing”

“I found the audio feedback very useful as it was very
accessible, high quality, easy to use, easy to understand, clear and concise. I feel that it is a very useful tool as I am able to go and listen to the feedback when I want so that I can keep up to
date on where I am going wrong”
“I found this form of feedback very interesting and found
it encouraged me to take on board the comments made, as sometimes when directly reading comments I tend to just skim over them quickly rather
than actually taking in what feedback has been given”
