Case Study: Embassy CES achieves higher student engagement and better formative assessment with SMART Technologies' SMART Response

Improving language learning with SMART Response™ interactive response system

Embassy CES is a leading international English language training institute with state-of-the-art centres worldwide. Facing the challenge of improving learning outcomes for students of diverse backgrounds and skill levels, the school evaluated whether the SMART Response interactive response system could enhance engagement, assessment and classroom confidence.

They integrated SMART Response with SMART Boards, student laptops and an online LMS, piloting the system with demonstration kits and staff training. Used for formative quizzes, anonymous polls and paired handset activities, the solution was adopted at Cambridge and Oxford; teachers report greater student interaction, enjoyment and confidence, plus improved formative assessment and lesson flexibility.
