TurningPoint priority ranking

First description

A Priority Ranking slide weighs students' choices and then ranks them accordingly. It allows students to respond to a question multiple times. You select the number of responses (maximum of 10) allowed per student. The responses are then weighted, with points assigned to each response. First choices are weighted with more poi nts than second choices, second more than third, etc. By allowing students to choose more than one option, you can see a more diverse range of their preferences. The Priority Ranking slide displays th e weighted scores assigned to the answers based on student responses. Note you do need to a llow your students more time to complete this type of slide. The Showbar will only count the fir st response by a clicker. If you have asked students to give five answers for example you need to give them time to give four more responses. Click on Priority Ranking and a dialog box will open asking how many responses you want to allow per participan t. Enter the number of responses you wish to allow per respondent. The default number of responses is set at 3. The maximum number of responses is 10. Then click on O K. A new slide opens prompting you to enter question a nd answer text. Enter the desired question and responses as normal.

Second description

The Priority Ranking slide allows users to respond to the same question multiple times based on their preference.

First choice is given more points than second choice etc. You can have up to 10 choices.

1. Click on Insert Slide on the overhead menu bar and select Priority Ranking .
2. Enter the number of responses each participant can give ( you must have them rank all answers or it will not work correctly ).
3. Enter directions for Ranking in the Question box.
4. Enter the things you want ranked in the Answers box.

Note: This may not give you the results you expect. Unless they rank all items if more people choose a given answer, even if they choose it as their last choice, that answer will come out ahead of what was really the first, or second choice winner.
