Although I have never used them in class before (except for the demonstration in ed tech), clickers seem like a great way to help students learn and also a great way to assess their learning. Being a very quiet child in elementary school, I would have found the clickers very useful because it would have enabled me to participate when I refused to raise my hand. I think they would help out a lot of students when it comes to confidence and participation. Also, they have shown to raise student performance. The only trick is that they cost a little bit of money… How do you feel about clickers? Have you ever used them or seen them being used in the classroom?
