  5. Experience with CPS 2004-2005 CPS purchased for the new Tuscarora Elementary School. Started using with 5th grade class that winter. 2005-2006 Used CPS as a tool in the computer lab with classes from Grades 1-5

  6. My Experience with CPS 2006-2007 eInstruction become a weekly part of my classroom instruction. Students love using the pads and are actually excited when we take a test. Miss Petela, a Freshman from Mount Saint Mary’s College, uses CPS with the class as a math warm-up.

  7. Response Pad Care & Use The CPS response pad is a tool, not a toy. Please do not bang on it, throw it, chew on it, or use it for a doorstop! Treat it with the same care and respect that would show to your own TV or DVD remote control. Be nice to your response pad, and your response pad will be nice to you.

  8. Anatomy of the Response Pad • 8 Buttons, A-H • Pads need 2 AAA batteries (included) • Each pad is numbered and sends it’s own individual signal. • Infrared lights at top should be pointed at the blue receiver.

  9. Anatomy of the USB Receiver • USB Connection plugs into computer (carefully) • Receiver needs to be positioned in a convenient location for students to orient towards.

  10. Getting Started with CPS • Determine if your school has a set of CPS remotes. • Have your schools Technology Coordinator install the CPS software from the website: • http://www.einstruction.com/Downloads/index.cfm • Start the CPS Program and follow the “Getting Started” tips on the first window that appears. • For assistance, contact your school’s Technology Resource Teacher for help with planning and implementing CPS lessons. • You can also access finished lessons at the CPS4PE wiki: • http://cps4pe.wikispaces.com
