Clickers: The Basics for TAs
Clickers are wireless keypads or personal response systems that faculty can use to increase interactivity in their classroom, especially for a large lecture class. This technology provides instant feedback to both instructors and students. TAs asked to support their faculty in this endeavor can learn the fundamentals of the Interwrite PRS clicker system.
This includes: using the clicker, setting up IDs, joining a class and getting an overview of the PRS software. You will learn how to create questions and see the resources and support that is available.
Clickers: Working with the data for TAs
This session on clickers will focus on managing the data obtained using clickers. This includes information stored in the PRS Roster, Sessions, and Gradebook. We will also review how this data can interface with MyCourses (WebCT).
TAs should check with their faculty members to determine if they will be using clicker data with WebCT. Note that if you only have TA access to a WebCT course you will not be able to upload files into WebCT. If this is something that your faculty member needs you to do, you must attend a MyCourses (WebCT) Intro class and the instructor must request that you be made a designer in the course.
