CAP Workshop - Clickers – using personal response systems (Turning Point) for learning and teaching

Wednesday 15 October 2014
10:15-12:15
UKPSF Reference: K4


Turning Point is a personal voting system that allows tutors to poll students and have the results graphically displayed as part of a PowerPoint presentation. The common name often given to these type of systems is “clickers” - the term “clickers” refers to the small handsets which are used to vote. Personal voting systems can make lectures more interactive – engaging students with the material being taught and giving the tutor an opportunity to provide formative feedback. “Clickers” have also been used to initiate discussions both peer-to-peer and with the tutor, and can be utilised to test students’ grasp of key concepts within the classroom.
