Introduction on principles of ARS
Audience Response Systems• Hands up• Voting cards• Voting systems (wired)• Clickers (wireless, RF)• Mobile devices
A definition
Audience response systems (ARS)• Electronically poll • Large groups of students • Using transmitters• Immediately results in graphic form on-screen • Instant feedback by teacher
• Review student comprehension• Stimulate discussion• Students are less shy to react: overcome fear• Anonymous for others in class• 2-way interaction• Competition• Less hard to admit a wrong answer and discuss it
I think students learn better when using ARS in lectures
