Abstract

Systems and methods can track, at a group level, times for responding to educational questions. A set of users is identified as users enrolled in an academic course. A set of responses is accessed (e.g., after being received). Each response in the set of responses is one submitted via an electronic user device associated with a user in the set of users and is one submitted in response to one or more educational questions. For each response in the set of responses, an accuracy of the response is identified and a response time for the response is identified. The response time is indicative of a time between presentation of the one or more questions and submission the response. The identified response times for at least two responses in the set of responses are aggregated. A representation of the aggregation is caused to be presented.

Claims20

Dependent claims

A system comprising:

one or more processing devices;
and
a non-transitory computer readable storage medium containing instructions which when executed by the one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform actions including:
detecting, over a network, electronic devices of a set of electronic devices;
detecting an input via a first electronic device indicating that a question has been communicated or is to be communicated;
for each electronic device of the set of electronic devices:
processing a wireless communication received from the electronic device that includes an identifier of a response to the question;
detecting a time at which the wireless communication was received;
and
determining a response time based at least in part on the time at which the wireless communication was received and a time at which the question was presented;
generating a response-time statistic based at least in part on the response times determined for one or more of the electronic devices;
and
transferring data corresponding to the response-time statistic to facilitate display of a representation of the response-time statistic.

10 more elements

One or more non-transitory, processor-readable media having processor-readable instructions thereon which, when executed by one or more processing devices, cause the one or more processing devices to perform actions including:

detecting, over a network, electronic devices of a set of electronic devices;
detecting an input via a first electronic device indicating that a question has been communicated or is to be communicated;
for each electronic device of the set of electronic devices:
processing a wireless communication received from the electronic device that includes an identifier of a response to the question;
detecting a time at which the wireless communication was received;
and
determining a response time based at least in part on the time at which the wireless communication was received and a time at which the question was presented;
generating a response-time statistic based at least in part on the response times determined for one or more of the electronic devices;
and
transferring data corresponding to the response-time statistic to facilitate display of a representation of the response-time statistic.
