Tip: i-clickersoftware can be copied to another computer (or computers) rather than residing only on your flash drive. For example, many institutions are placing i-clickeron the college network drive (or H drive) and a number of individual professors are placing the i-clickersoftware on their laptop computers.
The benefit of the flash drive is that the i-clicker software is fully portable; just insert the flash drive into any computer to access your course folder. We suggest you store any files associated with your lectures (your PowerPoint slides, for example) in the course folder on your flash drive – it’s a great way to keep everything organized. However, you may copy the course folder to any location as long as you have easy access to that location during your lectures. You must be able to access the same i-clicker course folder from this location, each time you start polling in class, in order to track your class’s voting data.

Tip: You can easily check for new updates to i-clickerand i-grader via the WebUpdate tool. These updates will not override your current course data but will provide you with key functional enhancements to the polling/grading software. We highly recommend you check for revisions and updates to the software on a regular basis. For more about using WebUpdate, please see Section 6 on page 45.

When you open the i-clickerapplication, you will see the following Welcome Screen (though the version number displayed at the top may be different).
New upgrade! i-clickercan now include your course name (and section number, if you so choose) on the opening welcome screen. You may title your course through Settings and Preferences (see pages 34-35 for detailed instructions). You may also manually loan i- clicker remotes right from the welcome screen (before launching the i-clickerprogram).
