In all classrooms maximum participation is a feat rarely achieved. With this piece of equipment each child holds a response clicker and answers questions given orally or written. Answers are immediately scored, students not answering are given a chance to answer and percentages are recorded. This is a wonderful device for teaching and getting all students to pay attention and answer.

In each subject, Math, Reading, "Writing, Spelling, Science and Social Studies I can use this either during a lecture or discussion or as a way of getting a response to a written question. I believe this will encourage all the students in my class to pay close attention more often.

For example, when I teach long division, I can show examples and non examples - a correct or incorrect answers - the class will chose which answer is correct. In Spelling, picking a correct spelling, in Reading, picking the correct comprehension answer to a reading selection or in Science picking responding the a discussion/lecture on planets and their distances from the earth, or number of moons.

I saw this device at a trade show and knew it would be a great thing for students and teachers. This device can be used at all grade levels. It is a portable machine, fits in a small suitcase, and can be shared with all grade levels.

I would make great use out of this wonderful machine.
