So I almost completed my project and I was very happy before the lesson began. I had a lesson on giving instructions and using transition words. I had created all of my slides using ActivStudio 3 and was ready to use ActiVote - which is a system that allows the students to use little remotes, similar to the iClickers that we use here at BYU, except the remotes look more fun and are more colorful than our iClickers. Anyway, so I had two questions in the presentation that needed to be answered. I was going to have the students use the ActiVote remotes to decide which was correct. I was going to do this because it would give me an indication of who understood what we were doing and who did not. However, I did not realize that I have to have all of the remotes registered beforehand on my computer. I am using my own personal MacBook rather than using my teacher's. This works out well because it allows her to do her work on her computer and I am able to use the Promethean Board. So tomorrow morning I will go and talk to the tech guy and see if he will be willing to put all of the devices onto my laptop and then I'll be able to use the ActiVote for my project. I almost had it done today...but I just didn't know that ONE detail!
