Description
Many faculty members have been using classroom response systems (clickers) to promote student participation in the classroom. This fall, I decided to test out clickers in two of my math courses. Using the iClicker brand, I wrote multiple choice questions based on the material being covered in class. Questions were written to either assess students’ knowledge of previous material or to lead the students to develop a new concept. In this talk, I will discuss the use of iClickers in my classes as well as share student feedback. There will also be a BSU iClicker representative available in the Moakley Atrium throughout the day to answer questions about these devices and how you can adopt them in your courses.
