School of Medicine students use audience response system from PointSolutions (formerly Turning Point) during lectures and group discussions to encourage audience participation and to receive feedback.

For future use
When faculty open a poll they will post or announce the Session ID so that you can respond to the poll using a browser at ttpoll.com
A mobile app is available, but most students find that it is NOT beneficial and prefer to use their web browser.
When used in the classroom, know that you likely have a Med Ed Technology staff member in the room to help with technical issues. Otherwise email mededweb@virginia.edu with Turning Point issues.
