The use of Student Response Systems or “clickers” is a proven way to engage students and let instructors know what students are thinking. We will demonstrate how to use iClicker Cloud as well as a brief introduction to Poll Everywhere. iClicker is paid for by the student where Poll Everywhere is free for the instructor for up to 40 responses. If you need more than that then the department must pay for a license which is $349 for six months. Poll Everywhere is not integrated in HuskyCT. The training will cover the following:
• How to install/run the iClicker software
• How to setup a Polling Session
• How to run a Polling Session
• How to link your Polling Sessions to HuskyCT
• How to sync your roster and scores into HuskyCT
• How to setup clicker Registration for your students in HuskyCT
• Brief overview Poll Everywhere
