This workshop will be conducted via interactive powerpoint presentation and includes hands on work with computers, tablets, and/or smartphones to illustrate how technology can increase feedback and thereby increase program quality and efficiency. We will show how our project has used mobile web on smartphones and a low cost audience response system (ARS) to collect evaluation information on our learners and inform our trainers on how they can improve programs. ARS utilizes clickers and mobile web uses smartphones and tablets to collect information immediately from learners and to allow the learner to offer feedback in a way that is nonthreatening and fun. We will show participants how to develop protocols for ARS and for mobile web. We will also break learners into groups so they can create their own ARS and mobile web evaluations.
