Turning Technologies has launched an iPhone and iPod Touch version of ResponseWare, the company's interactive classroom response software. ResponseWare has already been available for the iPhone and other smart phones through a Web-based system; the new version is a free download through Apple's App Store.

ResponseWare is a classroom polling system that allows students to respond to questions in a classroom or distance learning setting. It provides analysis, tracking, and reporting capabilities and access to historical data through poll archives. And it supports instructor and student text messaging to allow for feedback, questions, and other interaction between the presenter and audience members.

ResponseWare 1.0 for iPhone and iPod Touch is available now free of charge. Subscription details, further information, and a download link can be found in the App Store here.
