| contents | The aim of this study was to see whether student participation increased when mobile devices were used in the classroom. We measured the amount of student participative actions when the Socrative tool was used and when it was not used. Our experiment involved a total of 192 students, corresponding to 4 different subjects of Computer Engineering at the Universitat de les Illes Balears, during 2012/2013 and 2013/2014 courses. An independent paired t-test was performed on the measurements. The analysis results show that student participation increases with the use of mobile devices for theory classes and students are willing to participate in class activities and share their own results. |
