In our board (AMDSB), staff may borrow from the Media Centre the eInstruction Classroom Performance System (CPS) kit consisting of a classroom set of 32 infrared response units (clickers) and the receiver unit.  Note that our clickers are alpha response only.

CPS - What is it? - an evaluation, review and testing tool, can be used in one of two ways:

• as an instructional tool in the classroom
• as an assessment tool for student performance records to record student feedback from paper or CPS homework, tests and quizzes.
