Spotlight on Clickers
This week I would like to draw your attention to the tutorials on PRS Clickers. Personal response devices are handy tools being incorporated by faculty to increase interactions, enable peer learning, and check for understanding through polling students with multiple choice questions incorporated into class presentations.
Clicker-based pedagogies have been exploited by professors of all disciplines including the chemistry faculty at Allegheny who incorporate clickers into introductory chemistry courses.
