- No Tech "Clickers": A low cost alternative to clickers is printing enough of this document (front and back on one paper) that has a large "A," "B," "C," and "D". You ask a question and students fold the paper in half and then hold up the half with their answer facing the teacher. You can scan the crowd and quickly see their responses. Of course you can use this with any type of question, just indicate, for example, that the "A" represents "Yes." We encourage you to re-use the papers to conserve paper.
