TurningPoint Testimonials

“…The system’s capability to immediately analyse the data and generate required reports for both individuals and groups of students has been invaluable in terms of saving time and effort. In terms of student behavior, their engagement was obvious. They displayed more on-task behavior and were excited and motivated to use the system in comparison to completing paper and pencil surveys”

Tania Angus Highfields Primary School, June 2003.

“The Keepad system has provided our school with an easy and effective way of doing diagnostic testing and also of quickly evaluating student and staff opinion. We have also used Keepad for ‘technology trivia’ nights, and in professional development exercises. The system is not difficult to use, and is easily learned by even ‘non-techno’ teachers. Keepad eliminates the time-consuming collation of surveys and provides a raft of information from each evaluation exercise.”

Paul Staples, Principal, Pioneer State High School

“The system’s capability to anonymously record, analyse and immediately display students responses to set questions, express opinions and facts on sensitive issues provided a low threat environment for “student to student” and “student to lecturer” interactions and engagement in content.
Students displayed a greater willingness to be involved in discussions and an eagerness to record their responses.”
