It's not only an easy way to take attendance efficiently with a large group of people, but also is a convenient and environmentally friendly way to take multiple choice tests or in-class quizzes. Results can also be displayed directly after the answers are sent in, making it easy to know how you did in comparison to the rest of the class. It allows interactions between teachers and students, keeps the class alert, and encourages participation.
