Steps for Students

If you play this game with cards, follow these steps:

Your teacher will give you a set of Plickers cards. Each card has a unique code on it, like a barcode or QR code.
Before the game begins, hold up your Plickers card so that your teacher can see the code on it. This will help them match your card to your name in the Plickers system.
During the game, your teacher will ask you a question, and you’ll need to choose an answer from the options given.
Hold up your Plickers card with the code facing up, and rotate it until the letter of your chosen answer is at the top.
Your teacher will then scan the room with their phone or tablet’s camera, and the Plickers system will record your answer.
Your teacher will then display the results of the question, so you can see how well you and your classmates did.
Repeat steps 3-6 for each question in the game.

And that’s it! Just remember to hold up your Plickers card with the code facing up and rotate it to select your answer.

Plickers is a fantastic app which will engage your students and make learning more interactive. With Plickers, you can easily create quizzes or polls that your students can respond to using a simple set of cards.

One of the most popular features of Plickers is the ability to scan these cards with your phone or tablet’s camera, instantly collecting and analyzing your students’ responses. This eliminates the need for expensive clickers or other hardware, and allows you to get real-time feedback on how well your students are understanding the material.

Plickers also offers a variety of other useful features, such as the ability to create multiple-choice, true/false, or open-ended questions, and to track student progress over time. It’s easy to set up and use, and your students are sure to love the engaging and interactive learning experience it provides.
