Copyright © 2009 All Rights Reserved by QOMO HiteVision. www.qomo.com 4 Part 1. QRF900 ARS Overview Thank you for purchasing the QRF900 Audience Response System (ARS). The QRF900 ARS uses a 2.4G RF technology to receive instant feedback from the participants (up to 400 persons) simultaneously. Working completely out of Microsoft PowerPoint, the QClick ARS software is easy to learn and easy to use. The quiz question and the answer can be easily and quickly created using built-in PowerPoint templates. In addition to PowerPoint, QClick software can load other non-PowerPoint quiz files such as Word documents, PDF’s, and Spreadsheets. Also, the software has been designed to directly load XLM quiz files (such as Exam View) with auto-conversion. Additionally, you can use hardcopy tests and have your students answer using the QClick ARS. Using QClick’s Free Style activity mode, instructors can start quizzes without pre planning. Questions can be instantly captured from your PC, the internet, a White Board, or from a lecture. The QClick ARS software has a built-in white board tool allowing you to draw and capture quiz materials easily. The QClick system is composed of hardware (instructor remote keypad, participants’ remote keypads, RF main receiver, and extended USB cable) and the QClick software. The instructor keypad incorporates a remote mouse and some PC keyboard functions allowing control of the slide selection as well as the software functions. Equipped with the enhanced main controller function, the instructor keypad incorporates the main control functionality allowing the instructor the freedom of not having to use a computer to conduct the tests. Before the quiz, the instructor downloads the class setup information into the instructor keypad; using only the instructor keypad, up to 8 sessions of quizzes may be given. After the quiz, the instructor uploads the test data into the QClick system database. The QRF900 is equipped with 6 line LCD display and a big non-volatile memory. Both the student and instructor keypads can be used in any class by simply logging into a class which the QClick will automatically search for and then offer the ability to register for the class. The QClick keypad also allows a student to ask a question by directly communicating to the instructor with one single key press. At the same time, an instructor can view each student’s exam performances and the exam statistical data on the remote LCD display without sharing the private student exam information with others. The non-volatile memory in the student remote keypad can store a whole semester’s homework and exam answers. Students can use the keypads to receive the homework assignment, do the homework from home, and then turn in the assignment in the class with just a simple key press. Each student keypad has one unique Student ID which can be easily set and reset by a manager or by a user. If a student keypad is lost or damaged, it can be replaced with any new keypad by just resetting its Student ID. The QRF900 ARS engages individual responses through these non-Free Style activities: Normal Quiz, Paper Quiz, Homework, Rush Quiz, Elimination, Survey, Vote, and Roll Call. Free Style activities include: Normal Quiz, Rush Quiz and Elimination. The QRF900 displays instant results in the form of a histogram and a score board after each question is completed. Note: The words Quiz and Exam are used interchangeably in many places in this document.
