MAILING LISTS

Maybe before an application exercise to see where the class stands
(assuming it can be put in terms you can ask with a clicker)? I don't
think I would share it with the class until the AE was done. If nothing
else, it would give you an idea of what the class is thinking.

> I'm wondering if anyone has used clickers in TBL classes and what creative ways you've used them.  I used to use clickers and loved them (as did my students), but when I started TBL it was too much for me to juggle at once.  Now that I'm more comfortable with TBL, I'm bringing clickers back.  During each lecture, I put up sample test question at the beginning of the lecture and again at the end (same questions).  I try to write them so most students can't answer them at the beginning, but can at the end.  This will be the first year I'm doing this using clickers, and it will give me a good idea of where the students are at before and after each lecture.  I also plan on using them to take anonymous polls now and then.  However, this isn't really TBL specific.  I'm hesitant to use them as a reporting method because then teams can see answers, but now which team is giving which answer.  Any other ideas?  Have people had success using them as part of the RATs?
