Abstract :
This paper describes the development of a mobile learning platform, MyFeedBack, to support students´ use of their own mobile handheld device for assessment and feedback. The uniqueness of this lies in the interactivity of the mobile application that enables students to participate in peer feedback activities, access their feedback, leave feedback on their summative feedback, participate in class discussions, take formative assessment in form of quizzes and create quizzes for their peers. The intention is also to alleviate tutors´ workload by allowing the use of group feedback that could be personalised.
