Response Solutions

In Optivote and Wordwall, IWA brings two complementary classroom student response solutions to Australian classrooms. 

Optivote's choice of IR and RF systems suit every need and budget, and provide instant assessment capability to any classroom.  Wordwall's Cleverclick solution extends the amazing Wordwall software, enabling every student to send text contributions to the whiteboard for the whole class to see.  These can be easily transformed, merged, and copied into other applications.

What educators say:  A growing bibliography of references to educator experiences using student response systems is provided here (Steve Draper, University of Glasgow).  Will Thalheimer provides a further reference list with critical appraisals.  Educator videos can be viewed at University of Texas, and at Purdue University.

Hand-held “clickers” allow every participant or student to respond to questions in the session without peer pressure effects.  The clickers communicate wirelessly with software on the teacher’s laptop, so the class responses to the questions can be superimposed on the display for all to see instantly.  Individual responses are recorded for assessment purposes.  The teacher is in this way able to judge instantly what the learning needs of the class are and whether specified learning objectives have been reached and are being applied successfully.
