A good little post by Derek Bruff recently details his arguments why clickers are useful in college classrooms. If you’re a skeptic, or trying to convince a skeptic, it’s worth checking out his post
We’ve also got a video that shows many of these same points — here that is.
Once again, here are a few very useful books on using clickers in the classroom:
Peer Instruction is the “bible” of clicker usage, including sample questions in physics. This text will change the way you teach! Derek Bruff’s new book Teaching with Classroom Response Systems comes highly recommended by Eric Mazur himself, which is high praise! Doug Duncan’s Clickers in the Classroom is a short and pithy gold standard of how to use Peer Instruction in the classroom.
