This session was very practical and was aimed at those attending getting the basics of “Polleverywhere”. Clickers have been used for some time but handing these out is time consuming as is giving them to students who might then loose them. Staff wanted to try bring your own device (BYOD) as so many students had ipads/smartphones/tablets.

In the spring of 2014 15 lecturers were involved in a pilot study which was successful and students and staff both found using this tool easy. There is a licence fee once more than forty students participate but it is worth having.
