About Assessing Students
There are lots of options for assessing students:
- Inside the classroom you can use Turning Point (Clickers) to get real-time input
- Outside of the classroom you can use Camtasia and Blackboard to create quizzes as pre-work, etc.
We provide the expertise and in some cases the equipment to support both of these options.
