© 2011 Luidia, Incorporated Voting Tool Use the Voting Tool on the Tool Palette with the eBeam Respond RF voting system to allow participants to respond to electronic testing, formative assessments, surveys, opinion polls, games and questions posed by the presenter. The data collected from these keypads is immediately transmitted to the presentation, giving the presenter a better understanding of comprehension. Before using the Voting Tool on the Tool Palette, make sure that the eBeam Respond product is set up completely. Carefully follow the instructions from the eBeam Respond Quick Start Guide instructions that came with your product. The eBeam Respond voting response system is powered by TurningPoint® 2008 software.
