CPS is a new an interactive system which Carleton is using. Comprised has available for use in the classroom.The system is comprised of a receiver remote for the presenter and clickers individual presenting and individual clicker remotes for the students, . The CPS allows for viewers to give feedback during Powerpoint presentations, teachers to give verbal and multiple choice quizzes in the classroom, and allows for has the presenter capability to have give 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 growon student performance to the presenter. The CPS is a great resource for presenters and teachers looking to incorporate technology into the classroom.
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.
