Just looking again at a study (in Salmon and Edirisingha) in which podcasts were used to provide feedback to students. The project (run by Derek France and Chris Ribchester at the University of Chester) was odd in that there appeared to be no set limits to the length of the feedback - and the files ranged from 2 to 14 minutes (!) long (cunningly, the grades were announced at the end of the podcast). However, student responses were generally positive, with many saying it actually felt more personal than written feedback, but also that it was more emotionally taxing. The authors conclude that it could work especially well as a technique for oral presentations, performances etc.
Anyone got experience of something similar?
