iClicker (UT only)

iClicker Assignments support an audience response system only available to University of Texas at Austin instructors. We are planning changes that will be rolled out this summer with regard to how the house-built app works and will keep this page updated with the new system.

iClicker attendance and iClicker test mode are no longer used or supported.

Prior to using iClicker:

Ensure the classroom has a computer with the necessary software installed.
All of the base stations should be labeled "Quest only" and will be running firmware version 3.03.
Students must register their iClicker remote in Quest prior to the start of your first iClicker session.
Finally, you need an iClicker Quiz assignment type in your grading scheme.

If your students iClickers are not registered prior to the iClicker session the Quest team may not be able to recover their submissions.

Once in the classroom:

Log into the Quest iClicker client.
Select what course you wish to start an iClicker session for.

Name your assignment.
Choose how many answer options you would like the students to have.
Set a time limit for the question
hit the red button under "Clock".
As students answer, their boxes will turn green.
If the software picks up an unregistered clicker, it will appear with its clicker ID.

After the question ends or is ended manually, it will bring you to the following page.

Select the correct answer by clicking on the graph, then select OK to proceed.

If you don't want to use the question,select Back or Discard.
You can continue asking questions using the same steps as above.
Once you are done using the iClicker system, make sure to select upload. If you do not upload your results, they will not be stored in Quest and will most likely be unrecoverable.

After class:

You should see the iClicker assignment in Quest where it will behave like any other Quest assignment.
