  Learning and teaching experiment was designed to incorporate SRS Student
Response System to measure and assess student engagement in higher education
for level 5 engineering students. The SRS system was based on getting an
immediate student feedback to short quizzes lasting 10 to 15 minutes using
Socrative software. The structure of the questions was a blend of true or
false, multiple choice and short answer questions. The experiment was conducted
through semester 2 of yearlong engineering module. The outcome of the
experiment was analyzed quantitatively based on student performance and
qualitatively through student questionnaire. The results indicate that using
student paced assessments method using Socrative enhanced students performance.
The results showed that 53% of the students improved their performance while
23% neither improved nor underperformed. Qualitative data showed students felt
improvement in their learning experience. Overall results indicate positive
impact using this technology in teaching and learning for engineering modules
in higher education
