Live audience response
Published in Catherine Dawson, A–Z of Digital Research Methods, 2019
Live audience response is a method that enables researchers to collect and record live and spontaneous audience/viewer responses and reactions. It can also be referred to as audience response systems (ARS), personal response systems, group response systems, classroom response systems, participatory audience response or real-time response (RTR). It is an interactive, inclusive and responsive method that can be used for interactive polling, student evaluation and student, employee or audience engagement, for example. It is a method that can also be used in online panel research, using a panel of pre-recruited and profiled volunteers (Chapter 42), and within public or private online research communities to gather attitudes, opinions or feedback over an extended period of time (Chapter 44). There are two types of live audience response: co-located methods in which audience and researcher (or presenter/lecturer) are together in the same place (see Lantz and Stawiski, 2014 for an example of this method) and remote systems in which the audience is at a different location to the researcher (see Hong, 2015 for an example of this method).

The second workshop comprised 12 representatives of energy companies. This workshop was held in order to obtain an understanding of energy companies’ roles in energy-efficient refurbishments. During both occasions, the research project Gentle Energy-Efficient Refurbishment was presented to introduce the participants to a relevant refurbishment project. The particular case study was discussed, but also energy-efficient refurbishment in general. Relevant questions were then presented to the audience and responses were collected using clickers or audience response meters (Patry 2009). In this way, all the participants could give a response to each question anonymously and express their own perspectives. The results were displayed on a screen in real time, accompanied by further discussion and questions. The response frequency was always 100% as the participants were asked to vote ‘no opinion’ as an option. Some questions were directly related to the ongoing research project, while others were general for the building sector, see Table 1.

An Anishinaabe facilitator held on-site (ITCM) focus group discussions with a total of 24 participants. These sessions provided information in two ways: electronic responses using an audience response system (ARS) and group discussion. Participants were trained on App usage with Android™ tablets accompanied by the 19-item survey and discussion. All focus group activities were facilitated by trained ITCM staff members who were Anishinaabe tribal members. The focus group results are being used to guide the next iteration of Gigiigoo'inaan at which point a formal evaluation of behavior change is planned.
