Turning Technologies has rolled out an updated version of its Web-based application to assist educators in preparing students for state standards testing.

The new resource, QuestionPoint 2.0, provides 10,000 standards-aligned questions that cover science, math, and language arts in 47 states. (According to Turning Technologies, three states are awaiting finalization of redesigned standards.) Questions in the application are searchable by grade subject state and standard.

Question Point 2.0 was designed to work with TurningPoint, a software addon to PowerPoint that enables real-time polling by automatically downloading selected questions in pdf files to the polling software.

Question Point 2.0 is free with the purchase of TurningPoint and supports Internet Explorer, Firefox, Opera, Safari, and Netscape browsers.
