1. Allow students to interact with polls using either personal devices (phones, tablets, laptops) or iClicker remotes, per their preference. (Classroom base station required.) 
2. Require students to interact using only personal devices (phones, tablets, laptops) and not iClicker remotes. (No classroom base station required.) 
3. Require students to use only iClicker remotes and no personal devices. (Classroom base station required.)

Starting Summer 2024, students need an iClicker student account. There is no cost to sign up for an account.

If Students Have a New Remote

Students with a new remote are asked to follow these steps:

1. Create a free iClicker student account.
2. Register the used iClicker remote in their profile.
3. Add the instructor's course.

Once completed, students can use the iClicker student app or the physical clicker to participate.

If Students Have a Used Remote

Students with used remotes are asked to follow these steps:

1. Create a free iClicker student account.
2. Register the used iClicker remote in their profile.
3. Add the instructor's course.

Once completed, students will be able to use only the remote to participate. If students with a used remote want to participate with the app, they'll need to purchase that separately.

If Students Don't Have a Remote

If students have no remote, and you want to have them participate in iClicker activities using their smartphones, tablets, or laptops, students will need to purchase the iClicker app.

Duck Store Availability and Pricing

We are exploring options to address the possibility that some students might not have access to a mobile device.

• Everything will be stored in the Cloud. Instructors who use a shared classroom computer will be able to access their account with their unique iClicker login.
• New polling options will be enabled. As one example, exit polls will allow students to share feedback at the end of class.
• Students will be able to turn polling questions into study tools in their apps.
• Optional geolocation technology can be used to detect whether a student is physically in class.
• New “assignment” functionality will support formative checks of student understanding before and after class.
• New “groups” feature will allow students to work together toward consensus on their answer to a polling question.
