2. Anonymous Question IndicatorFall 2004 Senior Project Initial Proposal Students are often hesitant to raise their hands to indicate they don’t understand part of a lecture. Teachers are left to read facial expressions. We propose an anonymous way for students to indicate they aren’t following the lecture. A small device, issued to students when they take classes, will send a signal to a station on the teachers lectern. It will display a count of how many students pressed the button on their units. All communication will be wireless and anonymous.
