Continuous assessment to inform decisions on teaching strategies for groups and individual pupils, and preparation for Key Stage SATs, both take out time which might be better used for teaching and learning. Marking by pupils or staff then wastes further time.
Interactive voting systems are a cost effective alternative and:
- avoids stigmatising more, or less, able pupils
- provide instant feedback to teaching staff on which concepts have already been understood-or not - allowing the teacher to use time more effectively and which pupils need further support
- and engage pupils across the ability spectrum
The new release of Interwrite PRS software brings the opportunity to use interactive voting systems (PRS or Pupil Response System) out of the "Ask the audience" / University lecture theatre clouds and into the reality of everyday teaching.
The Interwrite Learning "Cricket" clicker provides a robust and reliable wireless (not infra-red links for every pupil in the class to make assessment more efficient and, for the first time in history, an enjoyable process for both staff and pupils.
- Comes with a pocket box so staff can see instantly if any handsets have not been returned.
- Comes with Power Point enabled software to make setting up of questions / tests quick and easy.
Cricket is a practical way to really follow the advice of the Ofsted inspector who inspected me in my NQT year and "Find out what they know".
Demonstrations available in Greenwich, Bexley, Croydon, Bromley, Dartford and West Kent.
