Maximizing Community Involvement With an Audience Response System

TurningPoint is an audience response system that allows you to know instantly what your audience feels or needs. Each participant in the meeting holding a small radio frequency keypad does this. A presenter using PowerPoint would ask a question and each participant would “click” their answer on the keypad. The next slide in the presentation displays what the group chose for their answers. You could instantly know if the audience feels the most important issue on the ballot is education or building the new library. TurningPoint can be used in emergencies to find the group’s needs are water or shelter. Research says that a large group of non-experts is put against one expert the group is always correct. TurningPoint is used in town-hall meetings, community engagement meetings, community events, and even in office meetings. Come see this technology and improve your community by involving everyone in your meetings!
