Debi Rutledge adeptly utilized iClicker, an audience response system, in her diversity and cross-cultural psychology class at Rochester University to address the complexities of a diverse student body. The anonymous polling feature facilitated open dialogue on sensitive topics, fostering understanding among students with varying backgrounds. By sharing anonymous responses, Rutledge successfully navigated themes of racial identity and cultural experiences. Additionally, iClicker helped assess spiritual and religious diversity, allowing her to tailor teaching approaches accordingly. The positive outcome, as reflected in exit poll responses, underscores the potential of technology like iClicker in creating inclusive and culturally relevant educational environments.
