My use of TurningPoint
• MGT 3450 – Principles of HRM, 28-45 students– Multiple sectioned class, multiple semesters
• MGT 4550 – Current Issues in HRM, 35 students• BUS 3010 – Principles of Mgmt, 150 students • Limited use: 3 review sessions, basic functions• Run approximately 1.5 minutes per slide, 40-55
slides during a 75 min class, 30 slides for 50 minute class
• I preview about 20% of exam questions built into these reviews or like questions so they know they’ll see some of them on the exam (motivation to participate)

Benefits from my perspective
• Given before an exam is copied, I can identify “easy” and “hard” questions, make edits if desired
• I have a chance to re-teach or at least clarify questions and their correct responses
• Reinforces a need to study, is very obvious to some students if they are falling behind their peers
• Competitive – students challenge each other• Fun, engaging for all of us• Lots of features I’m not using yet• Textbook publishers are beginning to package
TurningPoint, pre-made lecture notes, and provide students with response cards as part of textbook rental

Drawbacks
• Extra work for faculty member– First 50 slide PP took about 12 hours to set up– Subsequent development, 2-4 hours– Can’t cut and paste the answers as a group, can cut and
paste the questions, though new developments in software allow you to “Parse” and merge in word documents
– Set-up cost of time in the classroom to hand out clickers/get them back
• Cost: About $2500 to set up first year (50 clickers, receiver, case, maintenance/support). Future years $500 maintenance/support fee if desired.
• Technology isn’t perfect!

I am interested in using this in my classroom.
