Learner Response Systems:Empower Students to Express Their Ideas

ActivExpression ActiVote ActivEngage

ActivExpression2

ActivExpression2 promotes classroom collaboration by allowing students and teachers to immediately view responses and to discuss them during the lesson. Our newly enhanced device comes with a backlight screen that clearly displays responses and is designed to resemble a smart phone, creating instant familiarity and usability.

Students have exceptional ideas floating around their inquisitive minds and their thoughts do not conform to a standard multiple-choice format. Opinions and insights are complex concepts to express. ActivExpression2 is a versatile student response system with full sentence and character texting options, offering students a range of response types as vast and dynamic as the ideas they are eager to convey.

ActivExpression2 is an intuitive Learner Response System designed to promote full-class participation and engagement throughout lessons while encouraging ongoing, real-time assessment of student progress. The Express Poll and Wonderwheel interface “floats” over most computer applications including web browsers, Microsoft® Word® and Microsoft® Excel®;enabling teachers to use ActivExpression2 spontaneously, minimizing lesson preparation time and maximizing precious classroom time. Easily export assessment results to Microsoft® Excel, or integrate data with ActivProgress to save, review and monitor student comprehension trends over time.

With ActivExpression2, transform the classroom into an interactive learning environment where the potential for achievement rests in the palm of every student.
