Feature Description
Previewing results
during an assessment
You can see what responses students have submitted during the
assessment and get immediate feedback on how the class is doing.
Easy-to-view results Display results in easy-to-view pie charts or graphs, which you can then
insert on a SMART Notebook page for a closer view and to add your own
notes in digital ink. You can also view results in detail, so you can see
exactly how each student has answered.
Add or change correct
answers to completed
assessments
Using Teacher Tools, you can choose to accept a submitted answer as
correct in addition to (or instead of) the original correct answer. SMART
Response software calculates the students' grades after the changes.
Multiple print options Print assessments as handouts so students can complete them at their
own pace, or add comments to completed assessments that can be
printed and used later as study guides.
Anonymous mode Allows students to respond with complete anonymity. Students can use
SMART Response software without signing in, or they can participate in
an assessment using any clicker, allowing you to gauge the group's
understanding.

party question bank

formats, so you can easily import questions from other applications,
including Microsoft Word and PowerPoint®, PDFs and third-party question
banks.

progress reports which can be as simple or as detailed as you need.

based on tagged characteristics such as demographics or curriculum
standards, or personalized reports on how individual students are doing.

with comprehensive student and class performance breakdowns.
You can also tag key words to describe various characteristics, correlate
