i>clicker GO Settings

The i>clicker GO settings is where you register to allow i>clicker GO use in your class. i>clicker GO is a Web-based, "virtual" remote that students use to answer questions on their laptops or other mobile devices. i>clicker GO voting can be done using a Web browser, iOS app, or Android app. When i>clicker GO is enabled for your course, i>clicker will collect votes from both i>clicker remotes and i>clicker GO. A hard-wired Ethernet Internet connection should be used to run an i>clicker GO session.

Note

NOTE: As of v6.3, web>clicker has been replaced by i>clicker GO.

Warning

IMPORTANT: Any pre-existing web>clicker accounts, both for instructors and students, will automatically become i>clicker GO accounts. Instructor courses will not need to be re-registered and students will not lose any subscription time associated with their account.

Course Registration

In order to allow i>clicker GO, you must register your course. Course registration adds your name and course name to the listing of available i>clicker GO courses, which students use to find and join your session. To learn more about i>clicker GO, visit the iclicker.com website.

Warning

IMPORTANT: Because it is a Web-based application, your experience with i>clicker GO will largely be determined by your school's network. You should confirm with your system administrator that your school has the infrastructure necessary to run i>clicker GO before enabling its use.

To register and enable i>clicker GO:

  1. In the My Settings, i>clicker GO tab, click the Edit i>clicker GO Settings button.
