The course gave us many good strategies for providing feedback to students and one thing that I do in every class is post in the announcements when I will complete grading. I typically let them know via announcement and chat sessions, that I plan to grade by Wednesday and if there is any problem and I'm not able to grade by Wednesday, I'll post an announcement. I also post announcements when I'm done grading so students don't wonder and worry. I've notice that this cuts down on the number of emails I receive. Are there strategies that you've developed in this area that you would like to share?
