YOUNGSTOWN, Ohio, March 13, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Turning
Technologies, the global leader in interactive learning, engagement
and assessment solutions, is extending an invitation to preview and
test an entirely web-based version of its flagship TurningPoint
interactive polling software. The new software will be
launched later this spring, but feedback from initial users has
been so positive that Turning Technologies has decided to provide a
pre-production release.
TurningPoint web will let instructors store and manage results
entirely online. Its many benefits include:
- Native PowerPoint integration through a light and easy-to-use
PowerPoint add-in
- Native support for clickers as well as mobile devices
- The immediate and automated transfer of all results to a
web-based reporting tool
- The ability to build content and facilitate discussions using a
completely web-based solution
- The delivery of interactive content at any time through the
creation of scheduled surveys and assessments
The scheduling capability allows instructors and trainers to
schedule homework questions, quizzes and surveys, which
participants can complete at times most convenient for them.
"TurningPoint web was designed based on client feedback and
allows instructors to combine classroom polling results with
surveys and assessments from outside the classroom," said CEO
Ethan Cohen. "Since many of our
clients depend upon PowerPoint and clickers, we have also included
a light, intuitive and reliable PowerPoint add-in as well as
web-based clicker support. Additionally, we have streamlined
the process for managing results by automating the transfer of
information to an easy-to-use, web-based reporting tool."
Turning Technologies is hosting webinars at the end of this
month for those who want to learn more about TurningPoint web.
These will take place on March 26 and
March 27 for those in higher
education, and on March 28 and
March 29 for corporate, government
and military markets. Webinars start at 2
p.m. EDT. Sign up here.
Webinar registrants will also learn how to obtain a pre-release
test for hands-on experience with TurningPoint web for PowerPoint.
The company will continue to support and enhance both
TurningPoint desktop and TurningPoint web. TurningPoint desktop
already supports a hybrid model where participants can respond to
polling questions with a clicker or mobile device in the same
environment. TurningPoint web will also support a hybrid
model starting in June.
A video highlighting differences between the two platforms is
available here.
