The use of Personal Response Systems (PRS) / Classroom Performance Systems (CPS) has expanded considerably since introduction in the early 2000s. Much of the exploration of the technology has focused on methodology, student participation, and student perception. This paper examines actual testing results over nine semesters to provide some…

This paper applies the extended technology acceptance model (exTAM) in information systems research to the use of clickers in student learning. The technology acceptance model (TAM) posits that perceived ease of use and perceived usefulness of technology influence users' attitudes toward using and intention to use technology. Research subsequent…

The goal of this research project is to investigate whether the use of a personal response system ("clickers") in the classroom increases student participation and discussion and its impact on the quality of the discussion in undergraduate accounting courses. While many studies conducted regarding the use of clickers rely on student…
