iClicker (Instructors)

iClicker Cloud

iClicker Cloud is the online version of the iClicker Classic. Unlike Classic, Cloud does not save data locally. A base station and iClicker remotes are still used for Cloud, however, responses and data are collected and saved online and through the downloaded application. With Cloud, however, students are able to create an account and link it to an app on both a computer and mobile device. Students may then use their 2 week free trial to submit their responses online using their computer or mobile device, after which time they would need to purchase a subscription, if they desire to continue use. If students would not like to pay to use the Cloud app, they can use the remote that is given to them by Textbook Services at no additional cost.

Note: Continued use of the iClicker Cloud App is an additional cost for students that are using personal devices when used for more than just attendance. Cloud can be used for attendance only and with the mobile app at no extra cost. Cloud can also be used with iClicker remotes at no extra cost for students.
