Previously I have made the statement that TurningPoint seems perfectly good but what a shame it only runs over PowerPoint. I had a play today with TurningPoint AnyWhere, which, as it says on the tin, will run over any application. It’s quite nice, really. Collects responses, displays them on screen and puts them into a report, just as TurningPoint itself. And you can create a PDF (via LaTeX) document to sit beneath it and act as a prompt for responses. There follows a video screengrab of me trying it out. (Try to ignore the error of numbering!).
The next response system class is in 24 minutes as I write this, so no time to throw something experimental into the mix. But I may suggest we try AnyWhere in a fortnight when we run the class again.
