"Clickers" - adding names and udelnet ids to the prs roster
Faculty who would like to associate their student's names and UDelNet IDs in their PRS Roster can do so with a conversion program. This program takes the UD IDs from your existing PRS class roster and matches it up with the corresponding names and UDelNet IDs (Net IDs). An example of the roster prior to conversion and after conversion is shown below. There are also step by step instructions if needed to help you with this process.
Example PRS Roster prior to conversion:
// Roster, Date&Time: 608101031, Version: 4.00.0076, CID: 5y?YGCCF, OS: Windows XP Version 5.1 zs: 0 dups: 0
TransId, Group Id, Last Name, First Name, Middle Initial, Student ID, Nickname, Net ID
