As a result, students’conceptual understanding was enhanced, and their exam grades were improved accordingly.Using smart devices in the class could be distracting, but can be alleviated by asking students touse the smart devices only during the poll question time, and put the smart devices away afterfinishing the poll responses. Overall it is beneficial to integrate the system into engineering classes to enhance classinteraction and participation. However, good implementation can be time consuming, as studentsand instructors need time to adjust to the new technology, there are the technological glitcheswith the system and network access, the login system may be inconvenient, and questions needto be designed cautiously to prevent
