Student Participation Is the First Step to Student Success

The University of Arizona is dedicated to helping every student succeed, but large class sizes can make it difficult for professors to track their progress. In his classroom, Paul Blowers uses PointSolutions to encourage student participation, promote self-efficacy, facilitate metacognitive training, and conduct formative assessments. Easy integration with PowerPoint and the ability to visualize responses in real-time is also essential in a classroom setting.

Echo360's e3 Formula in Action

The University of Arizona uses the suite of PointSolutions products to command attention and drive superior educational outcomes. It’s the ideal engagement tool because its Anywhere Polling capabilities allow questions to be inserted over any form of media.

3 Key Takeaways

Polling Increases Engagement Substantially

Students are far less likely to mentally tune out when polling is a regular component of class meetings. Paul Blowers, an engineering professor at UA, says, “No one has ever fallen asleep in my class now that we are doing polls constantly.”

Ease of Use

PointSolutions allows for audience response through clickers, mobile devices, and web browsers using an intuitive interface anyone can effectively utilize. UA instructors can also see and analyze all of the data collected easily.

There’s Always Room to Improve

Innovation is key, and it’s vital to experiment with the many different ways to use PointSolutions in concert with other Echosystem products to help you get more out of polls.
