How can I provide more feedback to students in a timely manner?

Provide self-tests with embedded feedback. Immediate student feedback provides the learner with concrete information about their performance for the purpose of observation and reflection.
Provide regular performance feedback to students via an online grade book, available for access any time. Students need frequent opportunities to perform and receive feedback on their performance.
Encourage student-to-student feedback by providing opportunities for peer review. Promote student ownership, which deepens their learning experience.
