Case Study: The University of Washington School improves class feedback and student engagement with know'N'act

know’N’act helps UW Professor shape classes based on students

The University of Washington School used know’N’act to help a forward-thinking professor better understand how students perceived his classes and to continuously improve the learning experience. By using the know’N’act software as a class feedback and assessment tool, the professor sought an easy, flexible, and scalable way to gather real-time input in the classroom.

know’N’act implemented a simple, elegant system that let students submit instant feedback from smartphones and laptops, enabling immediate responses to questions and classroom needs. The results were strong: about 98% of students said the system was easy to use and should be adopted by other professors, demonstrating clear value and high student acceptance.
