To register your device, visit http://atcsupport.cit.cornell.edu/pollsrvc. You will login with your netID and password, and you will need the serial number, or device ID, of your clicker. The device id can be found on the back, perhaps near a "bar code". You may wish to put some invisible tape over the number or write it down somewhere, since the numbers can rub off.

If you cannot read the number, you can recover it by coming to Walker White's office hours. It is okay to use the iClicker for a short while without it being registered (we still record the number, not the name), but you will not get credit at the end of the semester if it was never registered.

While we would love to move to the phone apps, clicker REEF is very unreliable. Furthermore, CUAppDev's new polling app is about a year out from proper use. So we are going to need all students to buy an iClicker We will use the clickers in class for the first time on Tuesday, August 28. It is important that you have an iClicker and register it by that class.

We are not really using a textbook for this course. However, there is an optional textbook that students like to use a reference. This book, Think Python: How to Think Like a Computer Scientist (2nd edition), is licensed under the Creative Commons. That means it is freely available online as either a PDF or an eBook. To get a copy, you should go to the author's webpage.

Because this an optional textbook, we do not ask the campus store to order it. If you would like to have a paper copy, you should buy it online.
