CPS is a new system Carleton is using. Comprised of a receiver for the presenter and clickers for the students, CPS allows for feedback during Powerpoint presentations, give verbal quizzes, and allows for the presenter to have instantaneous feedback as to how their students have performed on the various questions. We are still testing this software, so have very little documentation at this point. As we learn more, this section of the Academic Technologies website will grow.

To check out a set of clickers and a receiver, contact PEPS at x7070. There are currently not too many on campus, so request them early if you are interested.
