Taking Roll

To use Roll Call, your computer screen needs to be projected so that all students can see it.

1 Launch i>clicker and click start session.

2 Click the options button on the floating toolbar and select Loan/Register Clickers from the menu.

Click the Roll Call button in the displayed window. The Roll Call screen will appear with a scrolling list of names from the class roster file.

3 When names scroll into the central blue area, letters appear in the first column of boxes. Instruct students to press the letter on their i>clicker that corresponds to the letter next to their name. Once they’ve entered the first letter, a new letter appears in the second column. They must also enter that letter to confirm.

The following options are available in the roll call registration screen:

1 You can control the speed at which your students’ names scroll down the screen with the Scrolling Speed option in the top right hand corner.

2 The instructions for students are outlined on the screen and are easy to follow.

3 You can modify the information that appears about your students on the screen. Choose to display student names only, Student IDs only, or both. For more on this feature, see ??.
