• Resumen

  • The article focuses on an early identification system for at-risk students. The system will be a personal response system. The authors analysed personal response system (PRS) data from science courses. The authors discovered that there was a noteworthy relationship between grade distribution and the order in which students registered their PRS clickers. Students who registered their equipment early received a much higher probability of success than those registering later. The data makes it possible to identify students with a higher probability of failure.
