Step 4:Double click on the roster.txt file.

word processor (Notepad, etc.) will open. Add your student information
in this file under the existing information. It must be entered as last
name, first name, unique id. For example: Stelzer, Tim, tstelzer. Only enter one student per line.

Web Registration
Registering students' iclickers online is an effective way to register large classes.
Step 1:Have each student go to http://www.iclicker.com.
Step 2:Click on the MENU button in the top right of the webpage.
Step 3:Select REGISTER YOUR REMOTE. 
Step 4:Students
should enter their information. For Student ID, specify whether you
want the 7-digit ID # or their network username. The Remote ID can be
found in various places:
Step 5:When finished entering the information, students should click Register. They will receive a popup confirming registration. The student ID is now tied to the Remote ID.
If a remote was previously registered to another student, when the new student registers the remote online, they will be charged a $6.99 registration fee. The only way to avoid this fee is to use Roll Call Registration (below).
In Class Registration
This process is recommended for small classes under 50 students.
Step 1:In the iclicker program, click the name of your course and click Start New Session.
Step 2:Click the Options cog on the session toolbar.
Step 3:Select Roll Call registration.
Step 4:A
window will appear with the students' names. Next to the names are
letter sequences. Have each student tap the letters on their iclickers
that correspond to these assigned letter sequences. After a remote is
registered, the remote ID # will appear next to the student.
You must create a course roster using the steps in the first section above before student names will appear.
Step 5:Click Close to end registration.
