Title
Experiencing a Web-based Audience Response System in engineering lectures
Abstract
Currently, Audience Response Systems (ARS) are integrated widespread on face-to-face classes to improve the attendance and engagement of the students. In this paper, we present the current trend of using Web 2.0 to provide ARSs and our efforts to create a complete ARS over a proprietary platform. We created a dedicated gadget to be used by the students as the traditional remote control system, which can be operated from any device with a Web browser (e.g. laptops, tablets or smartphones). With our approach, teachers can use gadgets to compose and make in-class polls or questionnaires and check the responses on-the-fly.
