Abstract: | The clicker is one of the most popular mobile classroom response systems. A number of studies reported that clickers could effectively encourage students to participate in class. However, most of them are not talking about Chinese students and their finding seldom reported the difference in perception between Chinese and international students on using the mobile classroom response system in learning. They seldom examine the issue of cultural differences on the application of these learning management systems. The study can fill in the gap to collect their perception on using clickers in Hong Kong. The result shows that both Chinese and international students are keen on using clickers in class. The clicker is found to be able to advance learning efficacy and raise student participation in class. |
