Question: What is ACTIVote?

Answer: A simple to use audience response system

Simple to Operate

By integrating pre-prepared questions into your flipcharts or writing ad-hoc questions whenever you want to check understanding you can really enhance your understanding of your pupils and improve their learning experiences.

Pupils can become distracted when just one or two pupils are asked a question – ACTIVstudioMV enables the teacher to ask every pupil every question.

ACTIVstudioMV assessment sessions appeal to all learning types because they are truly multi-sensory experiences. The questions are presented to the pupils ‘one at a time’ and the tools and features of the software enable teachers to include sound and graphics and pupils are physically involved in voting to indicate their response.

ACTIVstudioMV is simple to use so that you can use it every day. It can be used with any interactive whiteboard or with a projector and screen. We will even arrange for a Teaching and Learning

Advisor to visit you and show you how to set-up and use your

ACTIVstudioMV system.

How to use

With a Promethean interactive whiteboard – register the handsets just once and the board will always remember that voting is possible. To start a voting session just click the voting button on the ACTIVstudio toolbar and instantly pupils and teachers will see the results.

Without a Promethean interactive whiteboard – simply connect the hub (receiver) to a PC. You only need to register the handsets once on your PC and the receiver will be ready to use voting at anytime. This means that the voting set is portable and can be used anywhere in the school.
