eInstruction Classroom Performance System for Instructors

The eInstruction Classroom Performance System consists of a radio frequency receiver in the classroom, response pads in the hands of the students, and a versatile software package that allows quizzing, polling, and more.

The eInstruction CPSrf response pads can be ordered through the bookstore just like ordering a textbook. The cost for your students is around 20$ and one response pad can be used for multiple classes. There is no cost to the instructor!
