Abstract

This paper explores of the use of audio within emerging technologies to support enhanced learning, assessment and feedback for Industrial and Product Design students. The methods used, and outcomes of this exploratory project are discussed and a view of the role of audio in developing effective learning, assessment and feedback strategies is offered. A number of examples of the use of audio during the project are presented. The development of robust guidelines for using audio technology is discussed, as is integrating its use into existing automated systems.

Keywords: Audio technology, assessment and feedback, case study
