Assessment & Student Response
In the days of old, it was primarily the teacher’s voice that was heard in the classroom. Today, we acknowledge that the key to an effective and engaging learning environment is that each student has a voice. Promethean’s suite of assessment and student response systems help educators ensure that each student’s voice is heard, mind is engaged and needs are met.
Whether delivered with our ActivEngage2 for tablets, other mobile devices and/or student computers or with hand-held ActivExpression or ActiVote devices, Promethean assessment and student response systems offer educators a simple and effective way to hear from every student, every day.
