Thus, forwritten assignments the instructor writes comments in the margins and/or general summativecomments at the end or beginning of the paper. Similarly, oral presentation assessments oftenconsist of feedback sheets on which the instructor has written comments during and/or after thepresentation.The ultimate aim of these procedures is of course to improve students’ competence inprofessional communications. However, it often seems doubtful that this goal is achieved. First,written assessments are time-consuming for the instructor, which can cause faculty to be reluctantto give many
