The Classroom Response System, powered by TurningPoint, is designed to promote interactivity and participation in a lecture or conference setting.
This system consists of a radio frequency receiver connected to a computer via USB, a set of response units (one is pictured on the top right) and the TurningPoint software which enables the interactive responses.
Questions can be prepared beforehand or on the spot. You can use the Classroom Response System in conjunction with PowerPoint and/or a wireless writing tablet. Results are displayed on screen instantly so that you can gauge the level of understanding. You can also set up quizzes to spice up lessons.
