Voting Systems in the Workplace – A Thesis

We love Googling* stuff. We recently found this thesis where Heiss et al explore the return on investment from a voting system so we thought we'd share it for you to make up your own mind. When we find these independent pieces of work we share them on our website so take a look around and see what others are saying about our technology.

*Other search engines may be available in your area.

 Sweet Tweet Treat!

Yep, that's right, @turningtechuk is on twitter. Click here to follow us now and we'll treat the first 10 people to tell us what they use TurningPoint for with one of our snazzy tote bags.

New Season, New Road Trip

We're back out on the road now the summer holidays are becoming a distant memory. Throughout September and October you'll find us at various conferences from ALT-C in Leeds to the World of Learning Conference in Birmingham. Find out more about our exhibition schedule here…
