Plickers Example
Students were given a Plickers card. When I posted a certain question on the projector, students raised their card in a certain way to answer the question. The cards contain bar codes with the letters A, B, C, and D on all four sides of the code. Students select their answer by holding their selected answer on top. For example, if a student chose A, the card would look like the following picture. As students held their answer up, I scanned their codes with the Plickers app on my iPhone. The app would gather the data on the percentage of students that correctly answered the question. An example of Plickers plus all of the questions used are shown in the first tab of the Assessment Plan section.
