USF Workshop: clickers (Feb 26, 1pm)



Calling all USF Faculty! 
Workshop: Clickers and Clicker Alternatives
Student response systems allow for automated collecting of individual student answers (or quizzes), either anonymously or to ensure accountability even in large classes. There are several clicker systems; we will discuss the main options as well as alternative systems that use laptops or smartphones instead of dedicated clicker hardware.
