Does anyone on the list use personal response devices (AKA "clickers") in their classes?
If you use these, what types of clicker questions or clicker activities do you use? My campus adopted a standard clicker and is encouraging use of these to increase student engagement in classes. I'm interested in compiling examples of interesting ways to use this technology to improve student learning. For those who have done similar activities using a show of hands instead of clickers, what are the advantages and disadvantages of each approach?(outside the obvious advantage of cheap and low-tech for the show of hands technique) Claudia J.
