Brady, Melanie; Seli, Helena; Rosenthal, Jane – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2013
Recent research suggests that clickers (electronic feedback devices) influence metacognition. This article reports qualitative findings from a quasi-experimental study comparing clickers and low technology polling. We sought to establish how clickers influence metacognition and whether differences exist in how each response system influences…

Frick, Theodore W.; Chadha, Rajat; Watson, Carol; Wang, Ying; Green, Pamela – Educational Technology Research and Development, 2009
Numerous instructional design models have been proposed over the past several decades. Instead of focusing on the design process (means), this study investigated how learners perceived the quality of instruction they experienced (ends). An electronic survey instrument containing nine a priori scales was developed. Students responded from 89…
