• In Event: CLT - Game Design, Personalized Learning and Personal Response Systems in Higher Education

Short Description

This study assessed the effectiveness of student personal response systems on increasing pass rates on a national certifying examination. The performance of 16 undergraduate college sections with nearly 450 enrolled students was examined and comparison groups were those classes whose professors used student personal response systems and those classes whose professors did not. A statistically significant relationship was found between the use of student personal response systems and successful passing of the examination.
