Definition
Clicker polling is a polling method typically used in large classrooms or conference halls where respondents use a special device called a clicker, or an app or website with similar functionality, to submit an option of choice from a specific list of options provided. Clicker polling may be used for multiple-choice questions, including survey multiple-choice questions, to gather rapid feedback.
Example
The following lecture from MIT OpenCourseWare makes use of single-round clicker polling for MCQs at multiple points in the lecture. Results at the aggregate level are displayed.
