A Podcast about Clicker

Because the discussion in class this week is about podcasting, I looked for a podcast with clickers as the subject. I have to be honest, the first one to appear is the one that I listened to. But wait, there's more. I also chose it because it is my undergrad alma mater, Penn State.

The podcast is less than six minutes long and interviews two professors that piloted the clicker program at PSU. It was fascinating that one of the professors was using a modified system of colored index cards before clickers came along. Both will continue to use clickers in the classroom and received positive feedback from students.
