Ed-Tech list members,

If you are using clickers in your classes, or wondering about using them in the future, I encourage you to attend this webinar in February.

WHAT: Webinar "Make Clickers Work for You"

WHEN: Wednesday, Feb 16th (1pm EST)

REGISTRATION: http://iclicker.com/dnn/UserCommunity/ActiveClassSpeakers/tabid/249/Default.aspx has the registration link

DESCRIPTION: In this interactive webinar, we'll explore tips and ideas for incorporating clickers into your particular class. Clickers offer a powerful way to increasing student engagement and improve learning. At the University of Colorado, we have transformed our classrooms by using clickers to promote peer instruction. We'll show research results on the most effective use of clickers, and discuss common challenges. In particular, we'll focus on the attributes of "great" clicker questions, discuss example questions, and share ideas on facilitating effective wrap-up discussions once all the votes are in.
