Student Response Systems (also known as 'clickers') use wireless radio frequency connectivity. It gives instructors and students immediate feedback from the entire class and automates routine classroom activities like taking attendance and grading student work.

Response pads, a receiver, and software are used to capture instant data from your students. The system is portable and easy to integrate into any classroom. The student response pads (or "clickers") are small, hand-held devices that allow students to answer questions or show attendance.

As our "preferred" vendor, Turning Technologies has provided us discounted pricing, benefits, and excellent support. We will work closely with Turning Technologies, faculty, and students to implement the technology into the classroom. If you are already using another classroom response system, you may continue to do so. We now offer the ability to import/export data to/from Blackboard using our preferred vendor Turning Technologies, and we continue offer this same integration with iClicker and e-Instruction/CPS. This includes importing Blackboard student rosters directly to your student response system and exporting classroom response system session data and grades to Blackboard.

Response pads can be purchased at a reduced cost by the students from the campus bookstore or at the Turning Technologies Online Store. Our school code for the online store is b2zG. The RF LCD and NXT clickers are available in both stores. For more information on Student Response Pads ("clickers") please see Instructor Resources on the side of this page. Every faculty member who chooses to use Turning Technologies receives a free test kit that includes a receiver unit for use in the classroom, a response pad, and documentation to help assist you in the integration process.
