Task: This article describes how to create a course and start a polling session the in the iClicker Cloud Instructor App.
Create a Course:
From the logged in Course Dashboard, create your first course by clicking the “Add New Course” button.
- To create a course, you must provide your course name, institution name, discipline, and course start and end dates.
- All other fields are optional, but completing them will make it easier for you and your students to identify your course.
Start a Polling Session:
Select the Polling icon on the Class toolbar.
Polling options will be displayed in the same toolbar. Start polling by clicking the start button on the Polling toolbar.
Respond Using Another Device:
- To experience student polling firsthand, open a new browser window or find another web-enabled device such as a smartphone or tablet. Using a second device will provide a more realistic simulation of the student experience. From your browser or second device, visit the student website at student.iclicker.com/ and log in using the credentials for the instructor account you created before (using the Campus Portal sign in!)
- Add the course you created in step 3 by selecting the “+” button and searching for your course institution and course name. Join the session and respond to the question.
