CUClickers
OIT’s CUClickers service supports the i>clicker student response system. This innovative tool, using a device often called a “clicker,” allows students to participate in classes and answer questions provided by the instructor. CUClickers base stations are available in most classroom and lecture hall media cabinets. Instructors can simply connect the receiver to their laptop and run the software to spark class participation. A student’s i>clicker remote is associated with his or her CU Login Name. This feature allows instructors to gather participation data.
IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Before the start of each semester, make sure you are using the most recent OIT provided i>clicker and i>grader software, available from the Instructor help page.
- Please trade in your charcoal colored i>clicker receivers for new white i>clicker receivers. The old receivers may have issues with recognizing new versions of clickers resulting in incorrect student data. To return your old i>clicker receiver and get a new one, contact the IT Service Center.
