Pearson Live Response

What Pearson Live Response is

Pearson Live Response is a classroom engagement tool that gives instructors real-time views of student understanding and participation. Instructors can create, reuse, or adapt sessions, draw on Pearson content, or build questions with a drag-and-drop planner. Question formats include multiple choice, written, matching, hotspot, and composite sketch. As students respond, live charts, word clouds, and visual overlays show results; instructors can pause, discuss, and resend questions to observe changes in understanding. A scoring slider balances participation and correctness. Geofencing and unique session codes connect participation to the physical classroom. End-of-session reports include class trends, individual responses, and participation levels. The tool is built into Pearson MyLab and Mastering, and students can join from any device without downloading an app or completing extra setup. Students get included access through MyLab and Mastering at no cost. A standalone option is available, with pricing discussed with Pearson. Current Learning Catalytics users can continue using their accounts and sessions, and Pearson offers transition-planning help.
