Abstrakt: The article presents a study on the use of Personal Response System (PRS) software which monitors time limit of every question, documents the answers, and shows frequency graph for choice of answers in a college algebra class. It says that students were divided into three sections such as PRS-user, PowerPoint user, and one section called a control. Results show that non-PRS section students have outperformed those in PRS but, its modification resulted to a more student involvement in the system.
