TurningPoint
Welcome to TurningPoint - the language of Assessment for Learning. TurningPoint is a brilliant Assessment for Learning tool that sits as a toolbar within Microsoft PowerPoint. Better than a voting system, it gives teachers instant reports to assess and analyse their pupils’ performance during and after the lesson, helping to create an environment of individualised and personalised learning.

TurningPoint is a brilliant Assessment for Learning tool that allows every child to be heard, so that his or her individual learning needs can be assessed and addressed, loud and clear. TurningPoint is better than a voting system in that it lightens the load of assessment by providing real-time, ready-to-use reports which can be used on the spot to amend lessons as you go. It enables teachers to practice personalised learning and potentially improves learning outcomes for every individual pupil in the class.

How It Works
TurningPoint lets you assess your pupils by giving them PowerPoint slides with multiple-choice questions to answer. Your class can respond to the questions using special handsets or computers and the results are shown straight away on screen as graphs, showing how the class is thinking. A powerful assessment tool, TurningPoint reports deliver crucial information in seconds, allowing teachers to assess individuals and groups easily and accurately.

Scalable and flexible
TurningPoint opens up a whole range of possibilities in the classroom and beyond. Using RF handsets you can create a scalable system that can be bolted together with other sets inside or outside of your school. This flexibility means TurningPoint can be used by hundreds or up to 83,000 people at the same time, making it perfect for conferences and large scale events in your school! Just imagine the new Wembley Stadium full of school children with their answers showing on a giant screen.
