There is a need in the higher education arena for a book that responds to the need for using technology in a classroom of tech-savvy students. Teaching with Classroom Response Systems: Creating Active Learning Environments is filled with illustrative examples of questions and teaching activities that use classroom response systems from a variety of disciplines (with a discipline index). The book also incorporates results from research on the effectiveness of the technology for teaching. Written by Derek Bruff, assistant director of the Center for Teaching at Vanderbilt University and a senior lecturer in the Vanderbilt Mathematics Department, for instructional designers and re-designers as well as faculty across disciplines.
