Note to Instructors: Ordering Clickers and Classroom Prep
It's very important that you place your clicker order through the AS Bookstore. Contact Linda Riggins: (530) 898-6844
Make sure that you are teaching in a smart classroom. Contact Jan Costenbader (898-4192 or jcostenbader@csuchico.edu) to let him know you're using clickers and which smart classroom you are teaching in so he can setup the TurningPoint reciever.
Pilot Program Underway
The CSU, Chico clicker selection committee has selected Turning Technologies, XR Response Card LCD clickers for a campus-wide one year pilot, which began in Fall 2007. For more information about the pilot program, visit the Smart Classrooms website.
