Using an Audience Response System (ARS) in a Face-to-Face and Distance Education CPT/HCPCS Coding Course
Abstract
We report the use of an audience response system (ARS) in an undergraduate health information management course. The ARS converts a standard PowerPoint presentation into an interactive learning system that engages students in active participation, and it allows instructors to display questions, surveys, opinion polls, and games. We used the ARS in a 2008 course, Health Services Coding, for lecture and test reviews.
