Summary: | An Audience Response Systems (ARS) is a tool to
increase active learning and gather immediate feedback from
the audience in real time. This tool is used in a classroom
environment to support teaching and learning. The aim of this
paper is to explore the perceptions on the leading pedagogy
and practices for using ARS technology in the classroom. In
order for an information technology to have a positive impact,
the technology must be utilized and must be a good fit with the
tasks it supports. This study also highlights the importance of
the fit between technology and users’ task. The sample
learning institution is Adni International Islamic School. This
research used survey method to determine the perceived fit of
ARS in secondary computer studies class. The Task-
Technology Fit (TTF) theoretical model was used to assess
ARS technology. The findings from the study suggest that the
system positively impacts the students. As a result, the students
believed that ARS have high perceived fit in the classroom. |
