Questions & Answers How do I lead a class-wide discussion
after a clicker question? Don’t reveal the correct answer
immediately. Ask for explanations to answers.
What if the technology doesn’t work or students forget clickers?
Practice with technology before class. For graded questions, students can write their answers on paper and turn that in.
