The eInstruction/Interwrite Personal Response System (PRS) clickers allow instructors to engage students with live, in-class polling and track their responses. During Fall 2009, 1152 clickers were ordered for 17 courses! If you are planning to use clickers for your Spring 2010 courses, please order the devices through the bookstore soon to ensure they are available for the beginning of classes and to increase the number that the bookstore will buy back at the end of this semester.
Please note that integration with PowerPoint is not available for those using Microsoft Office 2008 for Macintosh. More information is available on the Clickers support page.
If you are not sure about using clickers and would like to discuss how you can use this technology to enhance your lectures or would like help learning the software, please contact Marilyn Dispensa, the Instructional Technology Coordinator, at 274-3647 or mdispensa@ithaca.edu.
