Russell Stannard discusses screen capture technology and its potential for providing feedback to students. He has found that screen capture feedback allows teachers to provide more detailed, personal feedback to students in a way that feels closer to a face-to-face conversation. Students report that they find screen capture feedback clearer and more engaging compared to written comments alone. While there are some free screen capture programs available, Russell recommends paid programs such as SnagIt or Camtasia that provide more flexibility and features for creating feedback videos.

6. Online Flipped
Classroom course with
NILE
• Really clever way of giving feedback Russell. I hadn’t thought of that
though I was familiar with screen capture.
• I liked the feedback. It really helped me to see where I can improve.
• ‘This one was very unique and I could hear Russell's intonation when
he was giving his feedback. It felt more’ personal.
• The feedback really adds value to the course.

7. Online Edmodo
Course-TTV.com
• I enjoyed the course. Your videos on Edmodo were really
useful and the feedback was really clear.
• Russell, how did you do the feedback on the course? It’s great.

8. Online Edmodo
Course-TTV.com
• Where I see my own page my own work and Russell gives
feedback about my tasks, I am so happy, it was so cool, This is
the first time that I got a feedback by this way, it is very useful,
thank you,for make me feel good guide me well in this course!
• Immediate and innovative explanations.

I am sending you video feedback. Do you like this way of getting feedback?
Let me know if you like it and I can use it for the subsequent pieces of work.

Hi Russell
The video feedback is brilliant. I can follow everything so clearly. Please continue
with this way of giving feedback. How do you do that?

11. Screen Cast
Technology
• Saw technology at the BETT conference
• Modern English Teacher 2006.
• Times Newspaper 2006.

12. Feedback
Examples
• Giving feedback on a student’s written work
• Giving very simple feedback on vocabulary
• Giving overall feedback to all the students in a group after
marking their work.

13. Findings
• Can give much more feedback
• Visual and oral
• More engaging
• More personal
• Useful for revision
• Flexible
• Distance Learning
• Special needs
• Clearer

14. Emerging themes
Closeness to teacher
• There is reason to claim that through the use of screen
capture as a medium of feedback, a closeness desired by
students is created with their teachers. (Mathison 2012, p.
110)
• “Using audio feedback is a very useful way of giving feedback.
It makes me feel as if you are besides me. It is easier to
comprehend what kind of idea you want to communicate to
me. I appreciate that. I think I will use audio feedback with my
TLs in the future”. (Mann 2015, p.162)

15. Personal
• “It was a very positive, personalised and motivating
experience.” (Harper el al. 2012, p.6)
Use and reuse/more than a conference
• the ability to rewind and stop their teacher at will is an
advantage that screencasting offers over face-to-face
conferences. Indeed, with screencasting, students can access
live comments without the affective stress typically associated
with having their teacher present. (Serror 2012, p.110)

16. Detail
In summary, students signal the following quite clearly: video
comments are regarded as being more precise and nuanced
than written feedback, and as such give students a greater
amount of inspiration and motivation when completing future
academic work. Similarly, learning dividends increase as do
opportunities for processing feedback and achieving a closer
relationship with the course teacher. (Mathison 2012, p.111)

17. Theme 1-
Theme-Language Modifiers-Chatty style
Comments-Personal, Dialogic, Non threatening
Hyland and Hyland-2001 / Steve Man-2015
There is evidence that spoken feedback makes greater use of modality and
hedging which help sweeten the pill (Hyland and Hyland 2001).

18. Theme 2
Inner voice
Comments-Clear, Detailed, Easy to follow,
Thompson and Lee 2012
Tutors are often having an ‘in the head’ internal dialogue while marking a
student’s work

19. Theme 3
Teacher Presence
Comments-Closeness to teacher, relationship with teacher
Richardson and Swan
Teacher presence is a key element in the success of blended and distance
learning courses.

21. Screen capture is
everywhere.
• All the content on the Khan Academy.
• Large amount of content in MOOCS. Coursera/
FutureLearn/Udemy.
• Most of the content created by Aaron Sams/Jonathan
Bergmann ( Flipped Classroom).
• All the help videos on YouTube.
• The whole of my website.
• All the recorded PowerPoints on YouTube.

22. Examples
• A mini lecture on the Flipped Classroom
• Talking over a word document
• Talking over a table
You are not limited to one static image. Whatever you do on the
screen and whatever you open and close is recorded.

23. Getting screen
cast technology.
Free
• JING.
• Screen cast-o-matic (very
good for free tool)
• Cam Studio.
Cost ( one payment)
• SnagIT ( $30 one off
payment-can download
and test for 2 weeks).
• Camtasia ($179 one off
payment).
• Adobe Captivate.
• Articulate.

24. Conclusions
-Possibly the most relevant technology in
education.
-Feedback idea has huge potential
-Lot of other uses
