Clickers

What are Clickers?

Basically "clickers" are the same devices used on popular TV shows like "Who wants to be a millionaire?".  Each participant has a small hand held device, much like a TV remote control, which sends their response to a pc that accumulates the answers.  The total responses may then be observed in a variety of ways such as a bar chart, or pie chart.
