Wireless Technology for Audience Response, Interactive Voting, and Audience Polling Keypad Systems
Everyone knows the most effective meeting and learning activities share a common element: a high level of audience participation. In short, interaction. But not everyone knows that with Reply® wireless audience response technology, you can add interaction in a way that's proven to encourage participation, improve comprehension, and increase retention.
Works with many Reply® software applications and PowerPoint* add-ins
What they are
Here's how high quality Reply systems work (and work reliably...)
 |
  The computer tallies the responses from the base station and instantly displays them for the presenter or the entire group to see. Data can be shown as either total group feedback, individual responses, demographic units, and scores, or team standings. |

 When a participant enters a response on the keypad it is transmitted to the base station unit via radio frequency. The keypad then receives a message confirming the entry was successful and the base station transfers the data to your PC.
