iClicker

iClicker is an audience response tool that is available in OWL as a plugin tool. Instructors use a desktop application to ask multiple choice, short answer, numeric or image target questions. Students answer these questions using their own computer or mobile device.

For more information on the tool, please visit the iClicker documentation page. If you have questions about using iClicker, please contact the WTS Helpdesk.
