This paper presents an account of a small action research and development project which was carried out as a follow up to the Effective Practice Study in the use of ICT (Mellar et al. 2007). The project explored the use of voting technologies to undertake assessment activities in family literacy and numeracy classes. Voting technologies or voting systems (VS) are portable interactive audience response and electronic voting tools used in meeting, training, and research applications.
