Feedback is a cornerstone of effective learning. It bridges the gap between instruction and comprehension. Adding to this, it offers learners crucial insights into their performance and areas for improvement. In vocational education, where practical skills and real-world applications are paramount, timely feedback becomes even more critical. 

However, providing prompt and personalised feedback in traditional educational settings is fraught with challenges. From large class sizes to diverse learning needs, educators often find themselves stretched thin, struggling to deliver the feedback that students need.

Impact of Timely Feedback: Improved retention of information

Timely feedback plays a pivotal role in reinforcing learning concepts while they are still fresh in students' minds. When feedback is delivered on time/as expected, it allows students to immediately apply corrections and solidify their understanding. This real-time reinforcement is essential, especially in vocational training, where skills are built through repetitive practice and continuous improvement.

When students receive feedback quickly, they can address their misconceptions before they become ingrained. This proactive approach not only improves knowledge retention but also boosts students' confidence and motivation. By knowing exactly where they stand and what they need to work on, students can take charge of their learning journey. This further leads to proper future planning and time allocation. 

Graide’s Solution for Timely Feedback: Empowering you with process and AI

Graide is revolutionising the feedback process with its AI assessment platform. Designed to streamline grading and feedback, Graide has achieved to reduce the turnaround of submission to feedback drastically. In most cases, reducing this from 2 weeks to 1 day. This rapid turnaround is a game-changer for vocational education providers, who can now provide feedback within days rather than weeks. This becomes more crucial, especially before exams or practical assessments, where timely insights can make a significant difference in student preparation and performance.

Graide’s platform is user-friendly and intuitive, quickly adapting to the grading preferences of individual instructors. As the AI learns how instructors provide feedback, it becomes a supportive tool that enhances the accuracy and efficiency of grading. Instructors can choose to accept or reject the AI-generated feedback, ensuring that the final feedback is always high-quality and tailored to each learner’s needs.

Several institutions have already experienced the transformative impact of Graide’s timely feedback capabilities. For instance, Oxbridge Ltd. reported a 15% increase in learner satisfaction after implementing Graide. The ability to receive detailed feedback within 48 hours of submission allowed learners to make immediate improvements, leading to better overall performance.

Another success story comes from the University of Birmingham. By integrating Graide into their assessment process, they managed to reduce the grading workload by 89%. This reduction allowed instructors to dedicate more time to one-on-one interactions and personalised instruction. 

Testimonials from these institutions highlight the positive impact of Graide. Instructors appreciate the reduced workload and the ability to provide high-quality feedback without delay. Learners, on the other hand, value the prompt insights and the opportunity to continuously improve their skills.
