clickers
Handheld tally counters
Clickers are small handheld devices that produce a clicking sound, used for various purposes.
Dog trainers use clickers to mark desired behaviors during conditioning.
In classrooms, clickers are response devices students use to answer questions electronically.
The term also applies to TV remote controls and the tally counters used to track attendance or inventory: The bouncer kept count with a clicker.
