Abstract
Students often find that they receive little guidance as to the kinds of errors they have made and how these errors should be corrected because the pressures of modern academic life limit the time instructors have to provide feedback. Even instructors who desire to provide thorough written feedback may find it impossible due to lack of time or even the physical pain from repetitive stress. A system utilizing bar codes for providing extensive written feedback in a limited time is described in this article. Specific examples of feedback on written case studies, selling role plays, and general communication skills are provided.
