Take a look at Prezi http://prezi.com/ a zooming presentation tool. You can type in questions and use TurningPoint AnyWhere to receive responses. Very cool effect!
We are currently working on an export scheme to make it easy to move the results from TurningPoint and TurningPoint AnyWhere into the PowerSchool gradebook. We are looking for a few of our users who would be willing to test the export as we complete it. As always...thank you for your support.
If you are interested in the pedagogy that supports the use of your TurningPoint system and research specifically surrounding SRS, please visit my library at https://sites.google.com/site/clickerresearch... . If you have research and are willing to share please post me a comment!
I have stated for some time now that our student responses devices can be used effectively with elementary students. As testimony to this point, I frequently photograph my son's advancing skills with our clicker which include holding his first clicker at two days and actually pressing the buttons by age four months. Besides providing a comical documentary of his advancing clicker in his baby book, we at Turning have had discussions regarded what might be the earliest age of effective use.
I was recently asked if we have teachers who are in the fields of PE, life skills and enrishment courses that are active TurningPoint users. I would greatly appreciate any teacher who meets this description or if you know someone please send me their name/contact information. My email is trooks@turningtechnologies.com. As always, I appreciate the feedback and support of our user community.
I have found this website very valuable in information regarding designing and evaluating classroom assessments. These concepts can be applied to creating TP Assignments http://fcit.usf.edu/assessment/basic/basicc.h... .
If you are using TurningPoint and TurningPoint Anywhere with the same group of students, keeping the participant lists updated for both software products can be challenging. A better approach is to point TurningPoint Anywhere default folder stucture to TurningPoint folders. Take a look at the attached guide and let me know how it works!
