To use the system in lecture you will need a laptop or a phone. The course url
is:
https://app-ca.tophat.com/e/307394. (The 'course code' is included in
the web address - the last 6 digits). A laptop and smart phone will give
full access to all features, including submitting any questions, answering
questions other students have asked and participating in interactive demos. You
do so by accessing the website. A regular cell phone gives partial access and
will allow you to text answers to multiple choice questions. Because some students have encountered spotty Wi-Fi access it's recommended
that you text in your messages or you access TopHat via cellular rather than
computer wireless access. Send your answers to: (647) 931-6504. The content of the
message is the 4 digit question code followed by your answer. You will see the
code when the question is on the screen.
