### "Finally a polling option for students without technical problems!"

February 25, 2020

5.0

Overall it was a great experience and I would recommend it to any educator looking to have a way to monitor class participation

Pros

I used iClicker throughout my entire undergrad education as a way to monitor attendance as well as for in-class participation. There were never any technical difficulties that I have experienced with other polling software. I would say to any professor or teacher that wants to use this type of technology in the classroom, iClicker is probably the best option out there.

Cons

I cannot think of any cons that are significant. The only thing is that if multiple professors use the program you have to ensure that your students are on the right channel or else it won't count their participation. But this is super easy to check and fix if they are not on the right channel.

### "Effective for group response"

January 24, 2020

5.0

While iClickers can be tough to remember to bring to class, I never had a problem once I made a point to always carry it in my bag. It is a reliable tool, and I never had problems with it. I prefer it to online softwares such as Hotseat because it does not require internet connectivity.

Pros

This is an easy-to-use and reliable machine. I have used it for four years now and have had no problems: I just keep it in my backpack and pull it out when it is needed. It is robust enough to stand being tossed about in my back, and I rarely have to change the batteries. It always connects to the servers and I am confident when my answer is submitted.

Cons

The process of changing the response frequency for different classes was a hassle (from AA to AB, etc.) but I completely understand why it is necessary. Occasionally, I forgot to change it and lost points for attending a particular lecture; this was frustrating, but I understand that it was my own mistake.

### "iClicker: Basic functionality, not much else"

April 13, 2019

3.0

Pros

There are multiple ways to engage with students using this. The remotes themselves, while they function well, are pricey and very basic in their use. Other methods of engagement such as through the app are better.

Cons

Functionality is very basic with the remote, especially for the cost of the product. For something as expensive as it is I would like more functionality than just a few buttons for responses.

### "Classroom need"

December 11, 2019

5.0

I would say my overall experience with the iclicker was great. It helped for a more focused review when studying for exams.

Pros

The ease of this is what I liked most about this software. We used this for every day for in class​ quizzes, results are displayed and give immediate feedback.

Cons

What I liked least about this software is that. I don't have the data available to me so I can go back and review the questions I missed

### "More engaged students "

March 7, 2019

4.0

Pros

It helps students become more engaged in class and to help reinforce concepts. It is a good way to check for understanding of the materials.

Cons

It is a little expensive for students to purchase the iClickers because students have to have their own individual clickers in class. Responses are only limited to multiple choice questions and cannot enter in free response.

### "Great for groups"

December 31, 2019

4.0

This has been a great product that has a good price point. We can get quick feedback in meetings and presentations.

Pros

I like that this makes it easy to interact with a large group and get quick results to responses.

Cons

We have had them glitch a few times and some of our group is unable to use, but that is not too often.

July 16, 2019

5.0

Pros

It is very quick and simple to set up. All you need is a room code to join. The controls are the remote are very simple

Cons

The older remotes don't have screens which puts some students at a disadvantage. The software also tended to crash

### "Useful tool for classroom use but ease of use is initially low"

September 13, 2018

4.0

Pros

iClicker allows for a more engaging classroom experience between students and teachers. I strongly feel that utilizing this resource in classes creates a stronger learning experience and greatly benefits students during lectures.

Cons

Many professors struggle with adapting to this software. While it is useful and easy once you get the hang of it, the initial understanding of the program seems to take some time with staff.

### "Easy to use polling software"

November 25, 2021

4.0

Pros

It is easy to setup and use and has a variety of question formats for polling. The anonymous mode is great to get students to answer sensitive questions.

Cons

The only con is that the iclicker software itself could be more of a distraction that benefit to students.

### "Made the classroom interesting"

September 1, 2018

4.0

Pros

This was great technology for the classroom. They were cheap and easy to use, both for students and professors. It made classes interactive and good for going over possible test questions and hypotheticals. Good for debate and collaboration.

Cons

Out of classes of hundreds of people, maybe a few clickers went bad. Could have been the battery life.

### "All-in-one; Interactive, supportive, and neat!"

June 13, 2019

5.0

Pros

I use this in my classroom where I had students interactively participate in my questions, or I also use it for attendance-taking. ALL IN ONE!

Cons

You may need to customize the frequency so that others who are using this can match to your system. The software doesn't really remind you.

### "Great tool to learn with or vote with"

April 17, 2019

5.0

Pros

I like that you can create any type of questions to use the iClicker system with. You can use this as an educational tool to help quiz people on questions that they should know and memorize or simply use it as a voting tool for surveys.

Cons

The software itself is okay but the Clicker itself is a little expensive since every single person needs one to participate.

It was a fun way to get people involved and to measure the understanding of the class.

Pros

I loved the involvement of the class when iClickers were used. It allowed the participants to not be shy and make their best guess. It gave people the freedoms to learn.

Cons

There were some instances of the results not being captured or the program wouldn’t sync up with the students.
