Classroom Performance System
Who's Using Classroom Performance System (CPS)
Classroom Performance System is being used in all 50 states and in ten countries worldwide. There are avid users at all levels of learning. CPS resonates with the younger generation of learners because interactivity is second nature to them. Students need to be engaged in the classroom to improve student learning. What better way than using a device that is familiar and comfortable to them?
Since the introduction of CPS in 2000, over 300,000 response pads have been placed in use. This makes CPS the most widely used interactive response system in our U.S. public and higher education system. With that number growing daily, we are excited about the impact CPS is having in the educational process. Please take a look at what some of the customers are saying.
CPS Success Stories
Thomas Reed, a 10th grade biology teacher, was frustrated with the amount of time he spent grading papers everyday. After seeing a demonstration of the Classroom Performance System (CPS), he decided to use it for a short trial period. Thomas has now been using CPS successfully for several years.
"CPS allows me more time for lesson planning instead of spending most of my time on daily routine tasks like grading 107 quizzes every day. Now, more of my energy is devoted where it needs to be."
Thomas Reed
10th Grade Biology Teacher
"We are living in a microwave society. The children want to know right away…they want their excitement right now…their thrills, and that's exactly what CPS does for the classroom."

McDermott Elementary

"I am thrilled to have this technology in my classroom. The kids love using them. What I've noticed is that I have 100 percent participation. Even the shy kids could actively participate without feeling threatened or embarrassed by a wrong answer. For once my job was made easier by trying something new."
Michelle Roach, Teacher

"The Classroom Performance System has been a great tool for boosting confidence in my classes. Students seem to concentrate more and grades have improved in both my regular and special ed classes."

"We use the Classroom Performance System as both a productivity tool for our teachers and as a marvelous instrument for dynamically engaging our students, keeping them on task and raising their performance level."

"As a high school business computer information systems teacher the past 11 years and a college accounting and computer instructor before that, CPS is the most innovative and pertinent teaching tool I have been privileged to use in my teaching career."

"CCI Publishing recognizes the value of the Classroom Performance System and is delighted to have positioned its Basic Math and Pathway to Algebra content so that it is aligned with this innovative and interactive learning system. Not only does it provide a tool for the teacher, but it also actively involves all students in the learning process."
Margaret M. Leary, President
Cord Communications, Inc.
"The biggest benefit of CPS is that it engages all students in question/answer sessions. Prior to use of the system, when I asked questions the dominant (or most extroverted) students would be involved, but many others would disengage. CPS forces students to process the material actively, yet does not force a voiced response. Therefore, even the most introverted students are engaged in learning."

Billy Ryan High School
Denton, Texas
"Upon using CPS, immediately, attendance picked up and I noticed students getting more excited about class, holding a response pad, and discussing what might be the best answer to a multiple choice question. I think students request CPS because it is interactive, fun, social, challenging, and yet easy to use."
