iClicker (Students)

iClicker is a student response system that your professor may choose to use in their course. When an instructor chooses to use iClicker in a course, you are provisioned an iClicker remote from Textbook Services. If multiple classes choose to use iClicker, you are still given only one remote that will be connected to your classes. If you require replacement batteries for your iClicker remote, you may get them at Textbook Services.

Roll Call Registration (In Class Registration)

To register your iClicker remote in class, your instructor starts up a Roll Call Registration. A window appears with multiple students’ names on the board with a multi-letter code. Students then press the letters in order to register. Depending on how large the class is, you may have to wait for your name to be displayed.

Once you have pressed the letters that correspond to your name, you are finished.

Manual Registration

If your instructor does not wish to perform a Roll-Call Registration or if there was an issue when doing so, a manual registration is needed. You send the instructor your ID number and the alphanumeric code for your iClicker remote as shown below.

 

Cloud

Downloading the iClicker App

If your instructor chooses to use iClicker Cloud, you are provisioned an iClicker remote which can be used the same way as iClicker Classic at no charge to you. Alternatively, for a fee, you can choose to download the iClicker app from your mobile device app store and create an account. This app runs off of a subscription service and after a two week free trial, you pay to continue to use.

After creating an account, search for University of Wisconsin River Falls in the Institution Finder. 

Then you can look up your class using information your instructor gives you.

Registering an iClicker Remote in App

Note: When starting a membership, students are notified that they have a 2-week free trial after which students are prompted to start a subscription. If you would like to maintain a free service, you can register your iClicker remote (received from Textbook Services) with your mobile app account which does not require an additional subscription. To register your iClicker remote with your account:

  1. Open the iClicker App
  2. Select the Menu button and open Profile
  3. Choose the Register Remote option
  4. Select Register Remote and type in the alphanumeric code found on your remote in one of the following locations
  5. Select Save
