We’ll be using Turning Technologies clickers in this course. You will be required to have a clicker or the clicker app for your smartphone or laptop. Go to the bookstore to buy the right clicker. See below for the app. In my opinion, the clicker is the safer route (pretty much guaranteed to work, direct wifi connection to the receiver), but you may find the phone app or web interface more convenient (fewer devices to carry around, but connection goes through the cloud and then to the receiver).
You will receive some points toward your homework grade for every clicker question you answer, regardless of right or wrong. Clicker points will be tallied and entered into BlackBoard at the end of the semester. Note: you must register your clicker in BlackBoard for these points to count!

If you have any technical difficulties with your clicker, please contact ITS.
