Classroom Response Systems (Clickers/Polls/more)

The Fishbowl
How it affects equity: As stated by the Vanderbilt Center for Teaching, "The idea is for those who feel similarly about an issue to be able to talk with one another without being interrupted or rebutted by others who feel differently. Ideally, those who identify with one side of an issue discover that they have differences with others in their group, and similarities with those on the 'other' side."
