iClicker Cloud Classroom

Overview

A classroom Student Response System (SRS) is a technology that enables instructors to ask questions, gather student responses, display those responses in real-time, even grade them if necessary. A SRS allows instructors to verify student comprehension of course materials at any time during a class or lecture. Students use their own mobile device (laptop, tablet, or smartphone) or iClicker remote to submit their response.

Benefits

A Classroom Response System helps:

  • Gauge prior student knowledge before covering new material
  • Increase student engagement in the classroom 
  • Promote active learning
  • Encourage student discussion
  • Enhance student learning experience
  • Evaluate effectiveness of teaching
