- European students and teachers get interactive with mobile white board and advanced student response system -
Revolutionising learning and classroom interaction, eInstruction, the premier global provider of learning technology, launches a combined system that will change the way that students and teachers collaborate in the classroom. The company's exclusive integration of CPSPulse™ student response systems and INTERWRITEMobi™ mobile interactive whiteboards enables enhanced engagement, increased interaction and real-time assessment.
The mobile version of a traditional interactive whiteboard, INTERWRITEMobi supports student-centred, collaborative learning where teachers and students can simultaneously interact with and contribute to the same digital content. Mobi enables individuals or groups of students to provide direct input into a classroom activity without having to go to the front of the room. Ideal for passing around the classroom, the devices create a high level of participation and student ownership in the learning process.
When used with CPSPulse, an advanced handheld student response device allowing up to 1,000 students per class to answer multiple choice, numeric and short text answers, Mobi's KWIK (Know-What-I-Know) Screen displays individual student answers in real time. This dynamic feature allows those who normally remain quiet in the classroom to actively participate in lessons and enables teachers to privately view every student's answer seconds after the question has been posed. With that knowledge at hand, teachers are empowered to provide differentiated instruction as the lesson unfolds, making sure that each student understands a concept even though their learning styles may differ.
Steve Kaye, CEO of eInstruction commented: "With the increasing focus on how technology can enhance the learning experience, we have developed a mobile solution ideal for managing today's computer-based classroom while providing a new level of student-teacher and student-student interaction. Numerous research studies show that the kind of formative assessment enabled by this technology has the greatest impact on student outcomes."
