When
you are presenting a lecture or a debate in front of large number of people, it
is very necessary to know the response of the audience about your wordings,
knowledge and especially the way of their understanding. Few years back, people
use a question answer method to know the effectiveness of their lecture,
especially in institutions or classrooms. This is not a beneficial procedure
because only few students give their response and the rest of the students sit
quite.
For
this purpose, an effective technique has been introduced named as Audience
response system. It is a kind of an interaction process among the presenter
and his audience. The audience is given with number of different devices like
dial testing, audience response meters etc. these devices give the rating of
the effective lecture and people use it to tell the presenter about the
percentage of his lecture. Classroom clickers or student response system
is also a kind of the audience response system.

Students
are getting bored with the traditional teaching techniques; most of the
ineffective participation from the student’s side is all due to the lack of
teaching methods and the attention of the student. Students want to engage
themselves by adopting new techniques otherwise they show poor results.
Classroom clicker is introduced to engage student’s attention in the studies.
Students enjoy their studies more when some playing techniques are attached
with the studies. It has been seen that learning outcomes and the grades of the
students are getting higher when clickers are used in the classrooms.
Especially in higher education, this technique is now widely used and
appreciated by people.
