Clickers (i>clicker)

Back to Service Categories

Description

Clicker is the nickname for what are also called "classroom response units" or "group response systems". The system consists of a small remote control device (the clicker) used by the student to submit responses to questions posed in class, and a receiver (operated by the instructor) that collects the responses. The professor asks a question, and the students use the clicker to respond. The answers are compiled at the receiver end, and the summary is immediately available.

In 2008 UW adopted the i-Clicker (http://www.iclicker.com) as the officially supported clicker for campus. At this time, both Laurier and Guelph also use the i-Clicker.
