Question #1 The use of conceptests and CPS help me to measure my level of understanding of course material. A) Strongly Agree B) Agree C) Neutral D) Disagree E) Strongly Disagree Results Students ABCDE G&PM % (71) Phys Geo %(31)

Student comments Pro – “it helps me to understand the material” – “I like the way it shows how the class responds to questions” – Encourages you to pay attention more in class and follow along with the lecture – “Questioning your knowledge of things presented in lecture” – “made the class more interesting than straight lecture” – “promotes active learning” Con – Sometimes the clicker exercises were difficult – I missed to many. – “They use it to take attendance”

Question #2 The use of conceptests and CPS reinforced important concepts presented in lecture. A) Strongly Agree B) Agree C) Neutral D) Disagree E) Strongly Disagree Results StudentsABCDE G & P M % Phys Geo %

Student comments Pro – “Reinforced important concepts presented in lecture” – “Questioning your knowledge of things presented in lecture” Con

Concluding Remarks Greater instructor-student interaction Student response leads to immediate instructor adaptation of lecture material (CPS) Inquiry based instruction leads to improved understanding of course material Student can to do immediate personal assessment of their success CPS clickers are an efficient way to evaluate in class exercises – limited to: multiple choice format numeric
