Learner Response System
Student responses and answers are collected in exactly the same way as any other ActiVote or ActivExpression session.
If you are looking at ways of incorporating learner response systems, but don’t want the expense of a class set of handsets, then this could be an interesting option. Especially if you have already purchased iPads or iPod Touches for student use.
Utilize Self-Paced Learning
Assign questions of varying difficulty and enable students to respond at their own pace and view instant feedback. Use the detailed results data to provide just-in-time intervention to struggling students and to determine whether to spend additional time on the concept as a class or move on.
Reduce costs
Eliminates the need for additional hardware, optimizing existing technology investments.
Key Features
There’s two parts to the system. First the teacher needs to download the ActivEngage Server software to their computer. The students can then download the ActivEngage client software to their laptop, iPad/iPod, Android device or other mobile solution. Both downloads are free.
Try ActivEngage on three student devices for free. Learn more about how to download and get started.
To download, and access user guides on ActivEngage, go here. A login for Promethean Planet will be needed to get the software, but it’s free to do so.
