So I was trying to make a "Challenge Board" game in the team activities tab....but I can't figure out how I get questions in. It doesn't let me type in the box and it doesn't give me any to select from. Am I missing some data or what???

While we are on the topic of CPS I had major problems using the system on Friday. I sent the assessment as always ( I use CPS quit frequently) but after the student sent their answer the pad kept going back to "receiving". I wonder if this has anything to do with battery level. It seems like everytime I use them I have to keep changing batteries on the pads. Do these really drain batteries that quickly? Anyone else having this problem?
By the way, Melissa already knows that I couldn't help her with the Challenge Board.

Melissa,
Check this out. It is the instruction video to create a Challenge Board.

I had my first ever problems with CPS also FRiday. I got a receiver not recognized message and my students also had trouble receiving the assessment. My batteries are fairly new.

Okay, that was painful! I hate watching instructional videos What I can't figure out is WHERE do you get the questions from? Is there a database I'm missing or do we create the questions someplace else......

I'm going to try to do the post tests on CPS tomorrow. Last time I tried it I kept doing something wrong. I haven't picked it back up since. Hopefully it will work this time.

Woohoo! I figured it out!! You have to have made questions to have questions to select from. Amazing, huh? Now the next question, .....does Mathtype work with CPS?

Even learned something else. To get math into your CPS, use the big question graphic template for your question....type your equation into Mathtype, copy.it ..go back to CPS and press ctrl v to paste. I will admit I didn't figure this one out myself....had a online chat with the einstruction guys!
