# Feedbackr: Addendum *More advantages of an audience response system* *Published: 19 March 2020 · Updated: 27 January 2026* *Authors: Clarissa Braun & Karin Pichler* 1. **Increased student attention** 2. **Enhanced knowledge transfer** 3. **Increased willingness to participate thanks to anonymity:** Students are free to ask about something unknown without having to expose themselves or being afraid to ask a „stupid question“. Additionally, teachers‘ bias towards certain students can be prevented. 4. **Pre-formulated questions can be sent directly to teachers (anonymously).** Often formulating a question is a great challenge for students – it requires students to know exactly where the problem lies. This gives students more time to think about their question and put it in concrete terms. 5. **Create interactive teaching environments:** feedbackr offers the possibility to compare oneself and one’s results with those of other participants. Thus, it creates interactivity in the lecture hall which leads to a changed teaching situation. By involving students, personal interest in the topic and in teaching is increased. 6. **Real-time-feedback:** Students and teachers can see immediately which knowledge and competences have been gained and where there is still need for further explanation. 7. **Data acquisition and analysis:** Due to its web-based nature, feedbackr – in contrast to votes by raising your hand – allows to save, display and analyze the results. This allows teachers to record developments over time and students to view their individual progress. ## Downloads - [Article (PDF - 145 kB)](https://telucation.tugraz.at/dateien/02-feedbackr-ergaenzung-article.pdf) - [Accessible version (DOCX - 24 kB)](https://telucation.tugraz.at/dateien/02-feedbackr-ergaenzung-accessible.docx) This article is licensed under [CC BY 4.0](https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/deed.de).
