Turn the test into the lesson.

A feedback lesson starts with answers saved while you review a test. Present selected responses to the class, reveal the mark scheme and feedback when useful, and discuss what makes an answer effective. Anonymous answer comparisons support that conversation without changing the marks students have already been awarded.

Present it

Put one answer on the board. Bring in the rest when you're ready.

A full-screen classroom view of your saved responses. The question stays at the top, the answer on the left, and the mark scheme and feedback on the right when you turn them on. Turn both off and the answer moves to the centre, with room to annotate. Step through with the arrow keys or a swipe.Your saved answers, one at a time.

Response 1 is on the board. The question stays at the top. With the mark scheme and feedback off, the answer sits in the middle with room to annotate around it.

Example data: three saved responses, one strong, one middling and one weaker. With reduced motion on, panels appear and disappear without fading.
Class comparison

Let the class judge.

Students compare pairs of anonymous answers on their devices and pick the more effective one. The class ranking shows which answers they rated, ready to talk about. It has no effect on marks.

  1. 1Choose the answersYour presentation examples, or every response to a question.
  2. 2Students scan the QR codeOn their own devices, or with the link and code.
  3. 3They pick the better of twoAnonymous pairs: no names, marks or feedback.
  4. 4Show the class rankingOrdered by how often each answer was chosen. Marks unaffected.

After the ranking

Then discuss what made the difference.

Students have now read lots of different answers and judged which were better. Use the ranking to draw out the factors that made them better.

  1. 1What do the top answers have in common?
  2. 2What are the lower ones missing?
  3. 3Rewrite one answer together.
  1. 1What do the top answers have in common?Put the highest ranked answers side by side. Ask what each one does that the class rated.
  2. 2What are the lower ones missing?Compare with the mark scheme. Which step in the explanation never appears?
  3. 3Rewrite one answer together.Put a lower ranked answer on the board and improve it as a class, so everyone sees what good looks like.

What you control

You choose what the class sees. Marks stay where they are.

You pick what to save and show. Students comparing see two typed answers at a time, with no names, marks or feedback. Nothing they choose changes a mark.

What you show, and whenYou pick the answers to save and to compare. The question is always on screen. You choose script or transcript, and when the mark scheme, feedback and mark appear. Edits to the transcript stay in the presentation copy.
What students seeIn class comparison, students see typed transcripts of two answers to the same question at a time. No names, no marks and no feedback.
Marks are never affectedPresentation bookmarks are not marking flags. Class comparison choices are kept apart from marking, so nothing students choose changes a mark.
