Give feedback on students’ work

Send a written comment or a voice note on any answer, draw on a student’s drawing to circle a mistake, and the student sees it straight away.

Feedback in LearnWorkly is attached to one answer, so the student sees exactly which question it is about. You can write, record your voice or, on drawing questions, draw on the student’s work. Students see it right away, during the lesson or later at home.

The answer panel for one student’s drawing question, with a red circle drawn around a mistake, quick reply buttons, the voice feedback button and a feedback box with a Send button.

Draw on a student’s drawing

On Drawing questions, the student’s work appears on a canvas with red, blue and green pens. Circle a mistake, underline a step or write a correction, then press Send. You can send the drawing on its own or together with a comment. The student sees your marks on top of their own work.

Where students see your feedback

  • Under the question, in a Teacher feedback box, as soon as you send it.
  • Voice notes play right there; drawings show over their work.
  • Feedback on earlier attempts stays visible, labelled with the attempt number.
  • If you saved the student’s email address with their permission and Email students is on, they also get an email. At most one per assignment per day.

Frequently asked questions

Can I draw on a photo of handwritten work?

No, drawing is available on Drawing questions. For photos and other answers, send a comment or a voice note.

Can I give feedback after the assignment is closed?

Yes. Students can no longer change their work, but they can still read your feedback.

Does feedback change the score?

No. Feedback and scores are separate. Give the score in the same panel, above the conversation.
