Gray, Kyle; Owens, Katharine; Liang, Xin; Steer, David – Journal of Science Education and Technology, 2012
To date, research to date on personal response systems (clickers) has focused on external issues pertaining to the implementation of this technology or broadly measured student learning gains rather than investigating differences in the responses themselves. Multimedia learning makes use of both words and pictures, and research from cognitive…
