So apparently i need to do some filling in here on what a clicker is... well below you'll find a picture of one. So a clicker is this really nifty thing that i get to use in my business class cuz i go to such a rad high tech university. (jealous yet? ;)) anyway! for business this is how it goes down... there's about 185 students in the class and at the beginning the prof (Dr. Dan) turns a program on on his computer and we turn our "clickers" on and push "join" which will in turn then mark us in for the class period. (We registered our clickers online which in turn gave us a number, mine is 20 and that's how it corresponds with his master program) Throughout his lectures Dr. Dan will stop and give us a multiple choice questions. To answer we push the respective letter on our clickers that we feel is the correct answer and then hit send and when you've sent it your number on the screen goes from light blue to dark blue so you can tell that it got your answer. After 60 seconds the question "closes" so that no more answers are recieved. Then it checks all the answers and distributes how many people answered which answer and put a green check next to the correct one so you can see right away if you got it right and how many others got it right. It's pretty sweet!
so that's it! I gotta go read before class! =)
