The company offers LectureTools, an interactive presentation tool that harnesses the potential of laptops and cell phones to serve as learning aids rather than distracting devices; LectureTools Concept Assessment Tool, which is used by faculty or researchers to diagnose student conceptions and to evaluate learning; and LectureTools for iPad that allows students to relay feedback to their instructor in real-time during lecture. Its LectureTools system provides professors with a solution that enhances lectures with digital content, provides real-time feedback from students, measures learning, and facilitates online collaboration.
