INSIGHT 360 User Guide • Overview
The Mobi 360 teaching device option contains the following components:
Mobi 360 mobile interactive whiteboard—used to teach class.
Mobi 360 Receiver—wirelessly connects the Mobi 360 mobile interactive whiteboard to the
classroom computer running the Insight 360 software.

• USB cable—connects Mobi 360 to computer for firmware updates only.
Student response system (clicker) components include:
• Pulse 360/Spark 360 student response pads—used by students to answer questions in class.
• Pulse/Spark 360 Receiver—wirelessly connects the pads to the classroom computer running the
Insight 360 software.
•
User device options include:
• Insight 360 Web Access—browser-based application that allows students to answer questions using
any consumer device containing a supported browser.
• Insight 360 Teacher—application that turns your consumer device (such as an iPad) into an Insight
360-compatible mobile interactive whiteboard.
• Insight 360 Student—application that allows students to receive Insight 360 content on and answer
questions using certain consumer devices (such as iPads).
• Insight 360 Premium USB Stick—hardware that provides Insight 360 Premium functionality
(including supporting up to 100 Insight 360 Student application connections) whenever it is inserted

a) Insight 360 Premium Edition or Insight 360 Premium USB Stick is
required to run the Insight 360 Student application.
b) The Insight 360 Premium USB Stick must be inserted into an available
USB 2.0 port on the computer running Insight 360 whenever Insight 360

How Insight 360 Works
The eInstruction Insight 360 classroom instruction system increases lesson impact, provides award-winning
content, encourages student participation, assesses comprehension during class time and tracks daily
progress.
You will use the integrated Insight 360 system in three phases:
• Before Class: Plan using the Insight 360 software.
• During Class: Teach using the Mobi 360 or Insight 360 Teacher application.
• After Class: Assess and report using the Insight 360 software.
Communication between Insight 360 and the Mobi 360
The Insight 360 software installed on your classroom computer communicates wirelessly with the teaching
device: either a Mobi 360 mobile interactive whiteboard (using the Mobi 360 Receiver) or Insight 360
Teacher application (using Wi-Fi on a device such as an iPad). All classes, student data, tests, favorites and
other information reside on the classroom computer running the Insight 360 software.
Note: Your class, student, favorites, test and other data will not be accessible if you
take your Mobi 360 or Insight 360 Teacher device to another classroom even if
that classroom computer is running Insight 360, unless you have also set up that
computer with the same classes, students, favorites, tests and other data. The Mobi 360 or Insight 360 Teacher application allows you to control the Insight 360 software from a mobile
platform. The Mobi 360 itself does not retain any data, settings or other information. It presents data gathered
by the Insight 360 software.
Communicating with Clickers
The Insight 360 software communicates with the Pulse 360 and/or Spark 360 student response pads through
the Pulse/Spark 360 Receiver. The Insight 360 software collects data from the student response system
when questions are initiated from either the Mobi 360, Insight 360–Teacher application, or Insight 360 (in the
case of a self-paced test). For students completing self-paced Answer Key or ExamView tests using Pulse
360 or Spark 360 clickers, the tests must be handed out on paper. Students using clickers can also answer
Verbal, Tagged and individual ExamView questions during class.
einstruction.com/insight360

INSIGHT 360 User Guide • Overview
Communicating with WiFi Devices
Insight 360 communicates with consumer devices (such as iPads) running the Insight 360 Student
application or Insight 360 Web Access browser-based application through Wi-Fi. When you send self-paced
Answer Key and ExamView tests to these student devices from the Insight 360 software, students can view
the attached test content on their screens. Students using these devices can also answer verbal, tagged,
and individual ExamView questions. In addition, students using devices running the Insight 360 Student
application can engage in Constructed Response mode when the instructor is using the Insight 360 Teacher
application.
Note: Insight 360 Student applications can only be used with the Premium Edition of
the Insight 360 software. Contact your eInstruction sales representative for more
information on purchasing Insight 360 Premium Edition.

in the student roster in My Classes and displays the student’s name on the device. This option is
used when the devices stay in the classroom. See Joining a Session Using Sticker ID for more
information.
By Student ID
The student enters a student ID into the device on startup. Insight 360 then matches the entered ID
to the student ID assigned in the student roster in My Classes. This option is used when students
carry their devices from classroom to classroom. See Joining a Session Using Student ID for more
information.

students who are enrolled in that class.
Each class on your daily schedule is a separate class in Insight 360.
Examples:
Math 8 taught Monday through Friday from 8:30 to 9:20
Math 8 taught Monday through Friday from 9:30 to 10:20 (with different students)
Reading taught Mondays and Wednesdays from 11:15 to 12:00
A class session is a specific instance of a class.
Example: Math 8 taught at 8:30 on Monday, October 17, 2011.

Adding Students to Insight 360
Students must be added to your Insight 360 database before they can be enrolled in classes. You can add
students to the Insight 360 database in two ways:
• Manually add students to your Insight 360 database.
• Import students from a class roster in CSV (comma-separated values) format (usually a Microsoft
Excel spreadsheet).
If importing students from a CSV file, you can choose to:
• Import students directly into a class or classes that you set up in Insight 360. The students are added
to the Insight 360 database as they are imported into the class(es).
• Import students into the Insight 360 database and assign classes later.
Note: All favorites, classes, student data and other Insight 360 information reside on
the classroom computer used to set up this data. It will not be accessible if you

include:
Pen tool. Allows the student to write or draw on the device screen.
Eraser tool. Allows the student to erase only his or her annotations on the device screen. The
erase will not erase any teacher-supplied content displayed on the student’s device. Delete all student annotations from the screen (teacher-supplied content remains).
In addition, the following tools are available only in Constructed Response mode:
Allows the student to change the pen color.
Allows the student to change the pen thickness.
Scratchpad
The Student application contains a hideable Scratchpad on which students can write or draw. For example,
students can use the Scratchpad to write out math problems.
Scratchpad annotations are saved only for the duration of the question, self-paced test or constructed
response session. Once the “Waiting for Instructor” screen shows on the student device, the Scratchpad
erases all annotations. Scratchpad annotations are not saved as part of the student’s response in Session

Reconnecting with the Insight 360 Student App
Students who have connected to an active class with the Insight 360 Student application may be inadvertently
disconnected from the session due to Wi-Fi communication outages or other technical problems.
However, student devices may also be disconnected from an active class session because the student
deliberately or accidentally closed the Student application. For example, if the student switches to another
application (such as Safari or Note), the Insight 360 Student application closes and the device disconnects
from the class session. When the student reopens Insight 360 Student, the application must reconnect to the
class session.
You can set a preference in the Insight 360 software to be prompted when a Student application reconnects
to a class session.
To Allow a Student Device to Rejoin a Class
In the “Allow student to rejoin class” prompt, click Yes.
Note: If more than one student is trying to reconnect to the class (such as due to a
communications outage), you can select Yes to All to allow all listed student
devices to connect at once.
Removing a Computer from the Previous Desktop List
Once a device running the Insight 360 Student application has successfully joined an instructor’s class,
the instructor’s computer information will appear at the top of the Previous Desktop list the next time the
application opens. Shortly after the semester begins, a student’s Connect to Desktop list should contain icons
for the class computers of each class the student is taking.
If a student drops a class or begins a new semester, he or she can remove the class computer from this list.
Removing the class computer from the Connect to Desktop list does not permanently delete the class. The
class computer will still show in the list of all desktops and can be joined at a later date.
To Remove a Computer from the Connect to Desktop List

also the same as the Sticker ID configured for the student in My Classes. See Joining a Session
Using Sticker ID for more information.
• If joining by Student ID, ensure the Student ID being entered is the same as the Student ID
configured for the student in My Classes. See Joining a Session Using Student ID for more
information.
• The student response pad has the latest firmware and does not need updating. If there is a triangular
icon in the device’s row in Device Management, the pad requires a firmware update.
Note: The update process must be completed for each student response pad. Student
response pads will not connect until the firmware update is finished.

use the digital pen to calibrate the other eInstruction devices.
How Do I Know if the Receiver is Working?
A blue light on the receiver glows when it is fully inserted and powered ON. On the Mobi 360 Receiver, the
blue light is in the middle of the receiver. On the Pulse/Spark 360 Receiver, the blue light is at the end closest
to the USB port.
Insight 360 Does Not Show My Classes or Students
If you cannot see any classes or students that you had previously configured in the Insight 360 software,
check the following:
• The Insight 360 database is installed on the local machine rather than on a network.
• You did not move the Mobi 360 to another classroom.
einstruction.com/insight360
171
INSIGHT 360 User Guide • Troubleshooting Insight 360

Note: Configured classes, students, Favorites and other Insight 360 data are saved on
the classroom computer and are not transportable when you move the Mobi 360
to another classroom even if that classroom computer has Insight 360 software
installed.
• Ensure the database was not moved and that permissions were not changed.
• Your Insight 360 software is activated and has been recently updated.
Contact your Information Technology (IT) for more guidance on these topics.
My Pen Does Not Work
If your Mobi 360 digital pen does not work, check the following:
•
The red protective tape has been completely removed from the battery section of the digital pen.
The thin plastic tape keeps the battery from discharging during storage and shipment. It must be
completely removed upon hardware set up. Occasionally a small piece of tape remains behind. To
determine whether any tape is stuck between the pen sections, gently press the tab on the back of
the pen, slide the two sections apart, and check around the battery for remnants of red tape.
•
The digital pen proximity indicator
writing surface. If this indicator is red
shows on the Mobi 360 when the pen tip nears the Mobi 360
, the digital pen needs recharging. Place the digital pen
in the Mobi 360 holder, ensuring it clicks into place. The pen icon on the Mobi 360 shows charging
when the pen is correctly situated. You can use the Mobi 360 while charging the pen, but should
place the Mobi 360 on its charging stand when it is not in use to charge both the Mobi 360 and its
digital pen. The digital pen requires eight (8) hours to fully charge a drained battery.
•
If the digital pen proximity indicator does not show at all, the pen battery may need to be replaced.
Student Response Pads Do Not Receive Feedback
There are two ways to send feedback to student response pads:
• To always send feedback at the end of Verbal, Tagged, or ExamView questions, select the Send
correct/incorrect feedback to student devices at the end of each question checkbox in
Preferences.
• To send scores at the end of self-paced tests, select the Send scores to response pads at the end
of the test option when starting the self paced test in My Tests.
If these options are selected and student response pads do not show feedback during these occasions, check
the following:
•
Ensure the Pulse/Spark 360 Receiver is plugged into a USB port on the computer running the Insight
einstruction.com/insight360
INSIGHT 360 User Guide • Troubleshooting Insight 360

360 software.
•
Student response pads and Pulse/Spark 360 Receiver firmware is current and does not need to be
updated. If firmware needs updating, there will be a message on the Mobi 360 and in the Message
Center on the Insight 360 Home page.
•
If only one student response pad does not receive feedback, ensure the student entered the proper
join code and sticker ID or student ID (if required). If these are correct, you will be able to see the
student’s response on the Student Performance Table
in the Results Zone on the Mobi 360
for Verbal or Tagged questions. For self-paced tests, you can look up the student’s score on the
Session Response Grid report in My Results in the Insight 360 software.
Computer Does Not Meet Minimum Requirements Error
