eInstruction CPSrf for UMSL
Instructors can use the Classroom Performance System (CPS) in the classroom to inspire and engage students. The Classroom Performance System (CPS) is an easy-to-use RF response system ("clickers") that obtains immediate feedback from every student.

Where can I use this on campus?
How you can use CPS in YOUR classroom:
- Streamline your grading. Your CPS results can be easily exported to Excel, Word, PDF, or the CPS Gradebook.
- Pass out a paper test and allow students to answer at their own pace. CPS' automated assessment feature lets students answer test questions at their own pace while keeping track of answers and grades behind the scenes.
- Provide a non-threatening environment allowing all students to participate - even the shy ones. eInstruction will also be able to answer various questions regarding costs, and the various methods of use that are available with their product.
