Welcome to Interactive Voting Response Systems

Classroom participation is a large part of the teaching and learning experience and takes courage for the pupil to speak up and near psychic abilities of the teacher to know whom has understood the lesson. Promethean and SMART Technologies have each developed solutions to the subject of classroom participation through interactive voting response systems.

Promethean ActivEngage Interactive Voting Response System

Promethean ActivEngage is a software based interactive response system for education. ActivEngage is ideal to accompany mobile suites of laptops or netbooks and provides teachers with a means to quickly assess the success of a lesson.

With Promethean ActivInspire a teacher can display a question on an interactive whiteboard or verbally and students can respond using the ActivEngage virtual device on their computers.
