ABSTRACT

As schools adopt student response system technology - clickers - teachers are spending a great deal of time and effort developing appropriate questions. In Fall 2008, the authors pilot-tested a set of clicker questions for introductory business statistics. Additional course sets of student response system questions are in development. The authors share insights, questions, and results of course experiments.
