Importing a Class Roster

Students must register their clickers. They enter the device ID found on the back of the clicker. This allows you to import a roster with names linked to devices. That way you are able to see individual answers and scores, and you can even import scores into D2L.

To Get and Save a class roster file:

1. Go to https://sis.uwgb.edu/clicker/
2. Enter your campus username and password and click Login
3. Select the course
4. Click the Download Roster button
5. Click Save in the File Download prompt
6. Browse to the TurningPoint folder on your M Drive in My Documents.
7. Select the Participants folder and save the tpl roster file there.

You will want to download the roster for a particular course a few times the first week of class so you have an updated list that accounts for any adds or drops. Follow the above steps and you will be prompted to overwrite the existing roster. Click Yes, and your roster will be up to date.

Using the Roster in TurningPoint

• It is not necessary to have a participant list selected while you are a creating your presentation, but you must select a participant list when you are ready to start a session (i.e., begin asking questions in presenation mode).
• Once the roster is saved in the Participants folder, it can be selected in TurningPoint in the dropdown menu next to Participants.
• To view students who do not have clickers, click Participants, then Edit a Participant List. Select the tpl file and a spreadsheet will open displaying student information. Aany blank cells in the Device ID column indicate those students who have not yet registered their clickers.
