Clickers
(Student
Response System)
Learn More...
What are clickers?
Clickers, also known as "Student Response Systems (SRS)" "Audience Response Systems (ARS)" or "Personal Response Systems (PRS)," are hand-held devices that help teachers interact with students during lectures. Through interactive question-and-answer sessions, instructors can engage students in course material by providing instant visual feedback to the class. This allows the instructor to collect individual responses from hundreds of students at once and gauge student comprehension.
How do they work?
STEP
1: The instructor asks
a question.
The
question is usually projected
on a large screen in class.
STEP
2: Students click their
answers.
The
classroom computer registers
all student responses.
STEP
3: The instructor displays
and discusses the results.
The
instructor can display a
graph that shows how the
class responded as a whole
and discuss students' group
or individual responses.
