The benefits of choosing a campus clicker standard
Thursday, October 6, 2011 at 2pm, ET

As colleges and universities continue to look for ways to improve student retention and encourage deeper learning, many institutions are turning to classroom response systems as a proven method to stimulate conversation, measure student attitudes and drive active learning in the classroom. But with tighter budgets and shifting IT department priorities, clicker standardization has become a lower priority on the to-do list. This web seminar will offer real-world faculty and administrator perspective on the benefits of clicker standardization, and insight into the implementation and growth of clicker technology institutionally.
