Spring - 2010 News for Faculty (updated 2/2//10) :
* Classroom computers: Open PowerPoint only with the TurningPoint icon, located in the Applications folder. This will ensure that you will be using PowerPoint 2003. In the classroom, PowerPoint 2007 currently does not recognize Particpant lists.
* Loaner sets of clickers can now be checked out on a temporary basis from OIT Classroom Support in Hornbake, rm. 0125. Contact 4-8522 to reserve a set.
* Check out an Instructor Packet (two clickers and a receiver)
* Mac users: The latest version of TurningPoint for Mac allows instructors to import participant lists from ELMS and then export session scores ELMS. Get the latest version (1.2.2) from under the Faculty tab.
For non-PowerPoint or Office 2008 for Mac users, TurningPoint Anywhere is also available for download. The newest version also allows you to import participant lists from ELMS and then export session scores ELMS. Get the latest version (2.0) from under the Faculty tab.
