Abstract
The purpose of this study is to understand the details of how teachers give feedback to learners using cloud applications in Project Based Learning and to discuss specific strategies based on the results. As a result of analyzing the feedback and intentions of the teachers who implemented the Project Based Learning using Google Sheets, we found that the teacher efficiently monitored and provided feedback to the entire classroom by using strategies that took advantage of the high synchronicity of the cloud application, such as “immediate feedback to all students by coloring” in the cells filled in by students and “promotion of cross-referencing among students”. In addition, the teacher improvised feedback strategies that he had not designed before implementing Project Based Learning and provided more in-depth feedback. This indicates that it is important for teachers to utilize the high synchronicity of the cloud and to explore what appropriate feedback through interaction with students is and implement feedback with the characteristics of the cloud.
