Question Libraries and Useful Web Pages
- The Cornell GoodQuestions Project, has developed and tested a library of questions for classroom voting in Calculus.
- Maria Terrell's webpage has more resources, including a set of voting questions for linear algebra.
- Bruce Atwood has some good materials and a library of questions for using classroom voting in statistics.
- The Website for Clickers in Statistics Courses from Teri Murphy and her colleagues at the University of Oklahoma has over eighty clicker questions.
- Adam Lucas describes his use of clickers at Saint Mary's College of Califoria, including his conceptests.
- Mark Schlatter has written and tested a library of voting questions for multivariable calculus -- described here and his library of multivariable ConcepTests is here
- Canadian In-Class Question Database has classroom voting questions in calculus and statistics.
