Abstract :
Audience Response Systems can benefit the normal course of the classes. Dedicated Audience Response Systems can be quite expensive to purchase and maintain. Additionally, the question types supported are somewhat limited, usually only choice questions are available. In our previous works we have developed a set of OpenSocial gadgets that can be included in a personal iGoogle page. Our future work is centred in providing a electronic voting system based on gadgets with iGoogle using mobile devices as smartphones and laptops for voting.
