Vanderbilt Center for Teaching: "Teaching with a CRS" web site: http://www.vanderbilt.edu/cft/resources/teaching_resources/technology/crs.htm Has good information as well as links to other sites.
Links are mostly to Google Book Search where you can view the Table of Contents, typically many pages in the book, and order the book on Amazon, etc.
Astronomy, Physics, etc:
Duncan, D. "Clickers in the Classroom: How to Enhance Science Teaching Using Classroom Response Systems." (72 pages, about $15 with shipping from Pearson). Duncan "describes his experience using a CRS in his astronomy classes and provides advice for teachers interested in using CRSs [Classroom Response Systems] in their classes." Highly recommended for all educators including K-12 teachers & administrators. Duncan's web site.
Biology, etc:
"Dee Silverthorn of the School of Biological Sciences at the University of Texas at Austin uses a CRS in her upper level vertebrate physiology class. [Dr. Silverthorn has created a] series of well-produced QuickTime videos in which Professor Silverthorn describes her experiences with a CRS. The videos [here] also show a CRS in action." (Description taken from Vanderbilt's Center for Teaching - Above).
Read Mazur and Hake's papers on Peer Instruction in physics and their long work with SRS.
