eInstruction Pioneers Interactive Technology to Increase Classroom Collaboration and Improve Student
Performance
DENTON, Texas, Feb. 2 /PRNewswire-AsiaNet/ --
- Students & Teachers in Asia Pacific Engage Like Never Before
With Mobile Interactive Whiteboard and Advanced Student Response System -
Revolutionizing student learning and classroom interaction, eInstruction(TM), the premier global provider of
learning technology, announces the availability of a combined system that will change the way students and
teachers in Asia Pacific collaborate in the classroom. The company's exclusive integration of CPSPulse(TM)
student response systems and INTERWRITEMobi(TM) mobile interactive whiteboards enables students and
teachers to experience enhanced engagement, increased interaction and real-time assessment.
The mobile version of a traditional interactive whiteboard,
INTERWRITEMobi supports student-centered, collaborative learning where both
teacher and students can concurrently interact with and contribute to the
same digital content from team activities to learning simulations to
interactive lessons. Mobi is intended to enable individuals or groups of
students to provide direct input into a classroom activity without having to
go to the front of the room. The devices are ideal for passing around the
classroom, creating 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."
