The purpose of my action research study was to examine the effects of an ACTIVote student response system on students' achievement and their attitudes toward the use of technology, and to examine the teacher's attitude toward the use of the new technology. I also wanted to find out if my results would have an effect on whether or not other teachers would be encouraged to use the ACTIVote student response system with their students in the future. My research was conducted in a first-year Health Occupations class with students ranging in age from fourteen to eighteen. The ACITVote student response system was used throughout a unit on vital signs that lasted two and a half weeks. The findings indicated that the technology did not have a major impact on the students' achievement, but it did have a positive effect on both the students' and the teacher's attitudes.
