SMART Response XE interactive response system

Hero

Gain instant and ongoing insight into student understanding for middle and secondary education. The SMART Response™ XE interactive response system combines wireless, keyboard-style remotes (or clickers), a receiver and powerful assessment software. SMART Response XE integrates with SMART Notebook collaborative learning software, providing you with one application for creating lessons, delivering assessments and evaluating results.


Instantly gauge student understanding of advanced math and science content

SMART Response XE enables students to respond to questions using open-ended answers. The remotes enable students to input mathematical equations and scientific functions, such as quadratic equations, giving you the ability to cover more advanced content. With the intelligent grading feature, you can also choose the range of acceptable answers for a question, allowing for multiple representations of the correct answer.

Matth support

Engaged students

Keep students engaged in lessons

SMART Response XE helps keep students interested, involved and participating in lessons by giving them a way to individually respond to teacher questions. Students answer questions with their handheld remotes, and once a question is complete, they instantly and confidentially know if they answered correctly. The class results are also shown anonymously, so students can compare and learn from each other’s answers.

Guage

Ensure every student understands the lesson

SMART Response XE enables you to gauge students’ comprehension with questions created in advance or asked spontaneously at any point during a lesson. When students respond, their answers are automatically summarized as a pie chart or bar graph on a SMART Notebook software page, so that you can take a closer look or add your own comments in digital ink for further review. By seeing results right away, you can adjust your teaching on the fly and be assured that every student in the classroom understands the lesson.

Evaluate

Evaluate and manage student progress

With Teacher Tools, you can create class lists and view and manage all student assessment data in one location. You can tag questions by educational standards and cognitive levels, helping you track performance and identify areas for student improvement. You can choose from 18 in-depth reports, giving you the ability to display trends, view performance data based on custom criteria and create reports that are as simple or as detailed as you need. You can also use the built-in gradebook to record test scores, track performance or create custom exports and upload test results to third-party gradebooks or databases.
