- The teacher would ask a question and have the students write their responses on a piece of paper. Then they would get into pairs and discuss their answers. The teacher can walk around and hear all the students responses.

-Strength: you are able to see the how the whole class is answering and you are able to see how many people answered. So if people are not using the device properly, you will know

-Strength: You are able to see if the students understood and remembered the material from the day before. Some students go home and don't look at the information again till the next day, so it can be used as a warm up as well.

-Weakness: If students are not serious about the chart, the teacher wouldn't be getting accurate information about the students.
