New audience-response technology at Higgins Middle School near Salem, Massachusetts (U.S.), is helping in the classroom, according to teachers and kids alike. The system consists of a radio-frequency device that works between handheld remote clickers for students and their teacher’s computer. During lectures, teachers get instant feedback from students, who type in an answer on the clicker keypad. The answer is sent to the teacher’s laptop and can be projected onto the board almost immediately. Aside from a learning curve on the teacher side, Principal Todd Bucey reports a positive response all around.Source: The Salem News
