Feedback through digital teaching materials : Is the feedback effective from the digital teaching aids to bring students' learning forward?

Feedback in school is a relevant and important aspect of students' learning and knowledge development. In the school system, the digital opportunities have increased and with this, the digital teaching materials have also taken on a larger and more significant role in the school's operations. Feedback can take place in different ways that contribute to different types of processes in the students in their knowledge acquisition. In this study, we have analyzed three digital teaching materials that all market themselves with relevant concepts that are linked to feedback. The analysis has been based on four feedback levels: task, process, self-regulation and the individual level. We have tried to identify how well these teaching materials provide feedback at these levels for students' individual learning. Results showed that there are large differences between the different levels and how well the teaching aid provides the student with feedback. But the feedback structure between the different teaching aids is relatively similar
