iClickers is the common name for an audience response system, such as those used on the TV shows Who Wants to be a Millionaire? and Funniest Home Videos. A clicker system typically includes software, a receiver, and multiple remotes, and can be used in a variety of ways to improve classroom instruction. Review the Teaching with iClicker & MessageGrid article to see the benefits of using iClickers and how teachers are using iClickers to engage students in learning.
Learn more about training that is available for iClickers. At your training session, you will receive a starter kit that includes the classroom receiver and a USB drive. The receiver and USB drive can be used for all of your courses over multiple semesters. However, we need to know which classes you plan on using it for and how many students are in these classes. Complete this online order form each semester, so that an adequate number of iClickers can be ordered for your students.
If you plan on using iClickers in your class, include this information in your course syllabus and let students know that they can purchase their Clickers at the CCIT Support Center located beneath Harcombe Dining Hall.
