Hello, I work for PowerVote audience response system which provides the same type of product. Fully integrated in Microsoft PowerPoint and as easy to use as a wireless mouse, Its technology is becoming accessible to anybody who wants to make a PowerPoint presentation interactive
The basic effect of using an audience response system is "interactivity power" which keeps participants interested.
But this is only the beginning...
I see three way to go further:
Personnalised results
Detailed or synthetic result of each participant is printed immediatly after the vote session (using MS Excel). Is case of exam or certification, these leaflets become directly the elements of the exam. The MS Excel file can be all customised (logos, calculations, automatic appreciations ( "Good level, keep-on learning" - "Your work should be improved" - etc.).
Modulation of the presentation
Why insist on some well known subjects, and not spend time enough on really unknown items ?
Ask some questions, then check on a result slide how is their success rates. On the same slide you have created buttons to go to 2 or 3 differents version of the course (simple, full, medium). Each topic or sujet will be modulated just as the participants level needs it.
Prepare and follow
Before the meeting, use Internet to make a test and/or an opinion poll on the course subjects. Use these results to improve the meeting :
speak of the real important items, enforce the participants motivation before the meeting. After the metting, keep the contact with the participants with some questions : what is memorised, what is fogotten, what are the remaining matters ?
