If used properly, an audience response system can improve the retention of the material taught or spoken, as well as keep the audience engaged in the presentation by allowing them to participate, not just passively listen.
How is audience response used?
In the current meeting and training environment, it is unacceptable to NOT engage your audience in the presentation. Today's audiences want more. They want to be involved. They want to express their opinion. They want to see how others in the room feel about the subject. They are used to being part of the action with the growing use of social networking.
A list of the general categories of audience response uses are listed below.
