  5. Basics – always on the turning point tab • Insert Slide - various types • Set default point value if using as a grade • Set correct answer (auto changes all others to incorrect) • Insert Object – countdown, correct answer indicator • This can be done at the end if you highlight all slides on the left.

  6. Why turning point? • Review • Formative assessment • Summative assessment • Be careful not to give up on HOTS/HEAT!

  7. Standards based questions • Tools • Standards • Selct subject and grade • Pull from bank

  8. Turning Point Anywhere • Can be used to collect data without creating a turning point slideshow. • Use with a powerpoint, or ask questions orally. • Do not plug in white receiver. • The blue device is now the receiver.

  9. Importing to Gradebook • Send LeeAnn Ahern an excel spreadsheet of your serial numbers • In gradebook, select a class • Click the arrow under the title of the class • Select Export Student Roster • Automap • Save and export (name each class, ex: period 1) • In TurningPoint, drop down the Participant box • Click import participant list • Select your file • Now, all of your classes are Participant Lists

  10. Play & Save data • Insert the receiver • Open turning point • Open your file • Under Participant List (right side), select your first class • At the end of the game, click Save Session • Under reset, select SESSION • Remember to change the participant list between classes, save session, and reset session!

  11. Problems • Another teacher is using Turning Point near your room • Clickers are red/orange, instead of green

  12. tips • Print an empty class list (under reports, grading) from gradebook so students make sure they take the right number. • If grading, don’t show right answers until the next day OR rearrange slides for different classes. • Keep a “cheat sheet” by your computer so you don’t skip a step and ruin your day

  13. Teacher Cheat sheet • Plug in receiver BEFORE opening my slideshow • Open Turning Point • Select the correct participant list • Save session • Reset session • Change participant list for next class
