Flow is an audience response software developed by eInstruction, now part of Turning technologies. Among other things it allows for participation / voting using clickers that are linked to the presenter via wireless communication.
1st impressions of v2.0.1.6
I started testing in Oct 2014 on an MacBook Pro Retina running OS X.10 (Yosemite). It turns out the software does not yet run on 10.10. So I continued testing on an older MacBook Pro running 10.9.
Installation
- Installation requires restart. What? The only one doing this for ages.
- install locations & related files:
- Applications/Turning Technologies/Flow: 2 applications: Flow v2.0.1.6, LessonBuilder v1.0
- ~/Documents/Flow questions
- ~/Library/Application Support/Flow 2
Results
- no Powerpoint plugin for Mac
- Flow is prone to freezing
- cannot detect CPS Pulse clickers using Flow / Detect devices
