Using Insight 360 Cloud to Gauge Student Understanding

PARK MIDDLE SCHOOL- KENNEWICK, WA

A VOICE FOR ALL

CHALLENGE Bryan Lawson always keeps an eye out for

new and creative ways to inspire his seventh

graders at Park Middle School in Kennewick,

Washington. As a seasoned educator with

more than ten years of experience, he

understands the classroom challenges

teachers face when it comes to engaging

stud

teacher trying to ask a question and

instruction as he only used a laptop to

create PowerPoint® slides from time to time.

However, that soon changed as he learned

the Kennewick School District would be

making an investment in its students and

teachers.

SOLUTION Committed to a tradition of excellence in

education, the school district provided the

funds to equip their classrooms with tools

from eInstruction by Turning Technologies.

Bryan had upgraded from a basic laptop to

superior edtech solutions including Insight

360 Cloud assessment platform, a Mobi 360

mobile interactive whiteboard and student

response devices. Hoping to better himself

and his class, Bryan spent a weekend

becoming familiar with the technology. By

Monday morning, he was already using the

devices in class and has not stopped since.

Bryan utilized Insight 360 Cloud to

construct and deliver tailored instruction

that allowed his learners to actively

participate and engage with response

of the technology

the software and that every single student

has the opportunity for a voice and they

to be taught from the front of the class as

Mobi 360 provided the agility to instruct

from anywhere in the room.

CONCLUSION When asked about if he noticed a change

whole new perspective on teaching and the

opportunity to facilitate students to their

learning as oppose to tell them exactly what

improved greatly as learners were excited

to interact with lessons as well as take

responsibility for their education. The

attention of others as teachers who were

reluctant to try Insight 360 Cloud were

using the software within their classrooms.

In preparation of the new school year, Bryan

worked with his stepfather to build a unique

box set where students could collect their

clickers for the start of class. Moving

forward, Bryan is excited for the unlimited

possibilities of using Insight 360 Cloud for

the school year.
