ResponseCard XL

Optimized for self-paced assessments and high stakes testing, the ResponseCard Extended Learning (XL) takes advantage of the latest in technology advancements. The ResponseCard XL keypad provides features and functionality that encourages participants to stay focused on their test as well as allows them to effortlessly enter and transmit their responses.

Using the ResponseCard XL keypad, participants work at their own pace - navigating to any question in any order to select a response. Upon completion of the assignment or test, each participant independently transmits their entire set of responses to Turning XL for immediate analysis and automatic grading.

ResponseCard XL makes use of nonvolatile memory (memory that retains information if power is removed and then reapplied) to ensure data security and protection.

ResponseCard keypads and receiver fit into a light weight, custom fit carry case. The result is optimized portability, ensuring ease of system transportation from room to room or location to location.
