Stimulate Your Learners with the Best Audience Response System
See Point SolutionsEngaging learners outside of a traditional setting can prove challenging. Employees lead busy lives, and many of them would prefer not to complete compliance training during their downtime. Similarly, university students are often tempted to click through online educational materials while doing something else. If your organization is looking to engage learners who aren't always trying to devote their full attention to their instructors, interactivity is the key. Dojo360's suite of Point Solutions products is a proven audience response system that gives you everything you need to engage with your audience in real-time. Features such as live polls, interactive quizzes, and the ability to add images to lessons transform passive presentations into interactive sessions that help you connect with learners.

Why Do I Need an Audience Response System?
An audience response system is one way for instructors to communicate with learners in a fun, engaging manner. For instance, in-person meetings can turn to interactive audience response to ensure that shy attendees feel comfortable contributing their ideas to the broader discussion even if that just means answering a poll question on their smartphone. Likewise, remote learners can use audience response systems to communicate with their instructor and peers or colleagues, helping them deal with the isolation that often accompanies online training.
What Should I Look for in an Audience Response System?
You can't engage learners with a system that they can't figure out how to use, nor can instructors accomplish much with a confusing interface that limits their options. As such, ease of use is a top priority. Point Solutions supports Anywhere Polling, allowing instructors to easily add polls to media such as video and images to promote engagement in-person, via a web browser, or through a mobile app. If you want even more multimedia options, Echo360 leverages Amazon Transcribe (the technology behind Alexa) to index video content through automatic speech recognition, making it easier for learners and instructors to find precisely what they are looking for.
Learners also have several choices for how they interact with content on Point Solutions including smartphones, clickers, or the web. Point Solutions allows instructors to choose from scheduled or self-paced formats as well, so learners can engage with the material on their terms. It also supports gamification, allowing colleagues to compete over badges or points even if they are miles apart. If you're looking for additional ways to promote learner engagement, our dedicated learning engagement platform called Dojo360 allows for the creation of personalized learning paths to help all learners take the courses they need without wasting time on anything superfluous.
It's also important for instructors to be able to collect real-time data from their audience response system, and Point Solutions has you covered there too. Our analytics will show you how engaged your audience is, allowing you to make on-the-fly adjustments to your presentation if you're losing them. You can also export analytics to your organization's LMS to make it easier to track learner progress over time and how one learner compares to others. If you want to make sure that your learners are assessed fairly, ExamView allows you to create up to 26 different versions of the same test that can be administered online or via pen-and-paper to promote equity. In short, you will always have the evidence you need to help your learners pursue their potential.
Can Learners See Their Instructor While Using Your Product?
Face-to-face interaction is a key element of engagement that you do not want to overlook.
Point Solutions can integrate with services such as Zoom to further promote audience engagement. Our other products can help you take learning to the next level. Echo360 uses Universal Capture to make it easy for instructors to create videos that they can add to lessons, while Dojo360 also includes video chat capabilities.
