SWITCHhub, the one-stop store for digital solutions, was unfortunately discontinued on 31 August 2022, which we very much regret.

We have already adapted services such as Zoom and Qualtrics, so that an account is automatically created when you log in with your SWITCH edu-ID, should an account not yet exist for these services. In addition, we will list here all web-based services that members of the University of Lucerne can use.

KlickerUZH

Open Source Audience Interaction

More Information

KlickerUZH is a web-based interaction tool, also called instant classroom response system, which fosters the interaction between speakers and their audience in various ways. During a KlickerUZH session (e.g., a lecture), a speaker may pose questions to be answered by participants on their mobile devices (e.g., smartphones, tablets or laptops). If so desired by the speaker, the audience can also ask questions, and interact with questions of other students, in the KlickerUZH Q&A channel. The lecturer can then respond to these questions from within the tool or orally during the lecture

Question types supported by KlickerUZH:

  • Single Choice (SC): Only one of the given answers may be selected.
  • Multiple Choice (MC): Multiple of the given answers may be selected.
  • Free Text (FT): The input is unrestricted (text answers).
  • Number Range (NR): A number within a given range may be chosen (or any number, if no range is provided).

Additional features and result presentation options:

  • Pictures may be added to the question.
  • Questions are part of a question pool and may be tagged to remain organized.
  • Sessions can be prepared in advance and questions can be put into questions blocks.
  • Presentation options include pie chart, bar chart, histogram, word cloud, and table.

KlickerUZH is an open source project, continuously improved and new features added.
