Why using ARS?
• Determine knowledge level of students• Determine knowledge gaps• Testing • Tailored sized lectures
• Determine student’s opinion• Ethical discussions
• Determine student’s choice• Clinical reasoning lectures
Effects of ARS
• Review student comprehension• Stimulate discussion• Students are less shy to react: overcome fear• Anonymous for others in class• 2-way interaction• Competition• Less hard to admit a wrong answer and discuss it
I think students learn better when using ARS in lectures
