An area of E-assessment that has seen extensive growth in recent years is the use of hand held student response devices (often referred to as 'clickers' or voting devices). These allow a teacher to carry out whole group assessments, polls and surveys quickly and easily. They use either radio or infra red to communicate with a central hub that is usually attached to a computer. In many school classrooms these devices may also be used in combination with an Interactive Whiteboard
