Athena Classroom is an educational software tool created to expedite the learning process. Teachers and students are networked, providing immediate feedback, allowing for personalized instruction, and helping conserve classroom time. Unlike monitoring software, Athena Classroom focuses on teaching and the teacher can interact in real time with the students. Seamless access to a multi-screen showing all student responses encourages modifications to instruction to increase student understanding during the class period. This constant rolling snapshot of the classroom’s answers provide the teacher with a profile of the classroom’s understanding, and does it instantly—not on the next pop-quiz, or chapter exam, or state-mandated standardized test. And when students don’t understand, they can write notes to the teacher on their screen, knowing that their questions, no matter how trivial they seem, are just between students and teacher. The teacher can also provide individualized instruction the same way, writing notes just to one particular student.
