Details | Since the introduction of the personal response system (PRS) to commercial market,
its adoption in higher education systems has increased. Extensive studies have been done on this tool, and corresponding PRS review papers have been published. The value of these review papers may increase, if outcomes will be empirically validated further with existing theories. As an initial effort, we investigate how the benefits and challenges of PRS, as concluded by Kay and LeSage (2009), are perceived by experienced college students in Taiwan. The research results confirmed that PRS challenges are partially while PRS benefits are partially but strongly influencing student satisfaction and the intention to continue usage. This research not only contributes by empirically validating PRS benefits and challenges derived from literature, but also by indicating that teachers may adopt PRS educational technology with fewer impacts from its limitations. This should encourage practical implementation of PRS. Some suggestions regarding PRS implementations and future research directions are also discussed. |
