Clicker Technology at the University of Memphis

  • Clickers (also known as personal response systems or classroom response systems) are remote type devices which students can use to respond to questions presented during a class session.  The students’ answers are received by the instructor’s computer, processed by the pre-installed software, and results are projected to the entire class. 

  • Clickers can be used for a variety of purposes: 

    • Instructors can take attendance by asking students to reply with their clicker response unit
    • Instructors can do a quick survey to gauge students’ understanding of a concept just covered in the class
    • Students can collaborate with classmates and submit group answers
    • Quizzes and tests can be administered using the clicker
    • Homework can be submitted via the student clicker unit

  • For more information about Clickers at the UofM: Which Clicker can I use here at the UofM?  | Presentation of Clicker use in teaching and learning
