  1. Activation of Engineering Studentswith Clickers Shuang Ma Andersen University of Southern Denmark , Campusvej 55 Odense M 5230, E-mail: mashu@kbm.sdu.dk Teaching practice It is here, it goes wrong or great! • Introduction The fundamental purpose of this pedagogical project is to activate engineering students by experimenting with clickers - electronic voting system. • Platform • Materials Chemistry, 6 ECTS points • 29 engineering students • 15 weeks, 4 hours teaching each week Problem formulation • The subject was often misunderstood a matter of memorizing information. • In the last year, too much attention was put on calculation assignment rather than fundamental understanding Informing participants Return feedbacks, inform participants new plans Observation & registration Post it feedback, e-mail, electronic evaluation etc. Pedagogical Cyclic Workflow • Structure • 08:00-09:00 plane lecture • 09:00-10:00 group discussion • 10:00-11:00 quiz competition • 11:00-12:00 calculation assignment Plan / Theory • The modification was based on UVP. Documents Documents • Evaluation • Mentometer or Doodle • Yellow post-it • Digital questionnaire New plans Change and experiment with teaching plan, backup plan Reflected thoughts Based on observation Why it goes well or badly, How can I do better Results Documents Documents Fig. 1 Pedagogical Cyclic Workflow Fig. 2. Evaluation comparison • Reflection • Group discussion and video clips are very popular and productive among engineering students. • Evaluation provides valuable information; however it is not natural for students. • Any teaching tool is to assist education rather than slowing down the process. • Literature • Model for undervisningsportfolio (UVP) iingeniøruddannelserne, IngeniørUddannelsernesSamråd (2008) • Felder R.M. et al.
