Clickers - General

Classroom Performance System (CPS) is a student response system developed by eInstruction that allows faculty to receive immediate feedback from students wirelessly with the use of small handheld devices commonly referred to as "clickers" (displayed below).

CPS can be used in conjunction with Blackboard to create a complete interactive learning experience. You can use CPS in an ILE classroom to engage your students and provide them with instant feedback and then upload results from your class assessments conducted with CPS into Blackboard.
