Clickers in P.E.
Our last lesson involving the clickers dealt with our "Food of the Week", which was potatoes. It was 5 questions and self-paced, primarily determining students' prior knowledge of the health benefits of potatoes. Students always must be in partnerships because of a lower number of clickers. They must agree on how to cooperate, whether it be passing the clicker back and forth for each question or just one person texting in answers, as long as both are reading the question and having a discussion about the answer they think is correct. Unfortunately, if they disagree then they have to come up with a compromising solution for which answer to select.

Nice example Chris, Cooperative learning, problem solving, and group work. A lot going on in a very little time.
