In this course, we will make use of eInstruction's Classroom Performance System (CPS) technology to facilitate active learning, discussion, and instructor feedback in the classroom. All students are required to purchase a CPSrf response pad (a/k/a "clicker") for use in class. These can be obtained at the University Bookstore. They can be used in other Law School courses in which this technology is being used. When no longer needed, they can be re-sold and used by other students. Please note that the radio frequency ("rf") response pads are required; the infrared clickers used last year will not suffice.
Please bring your clicker to the first class of the Spring 2008 Semester.
Also, prior to the first class, please "enroll" in CPSOnline. To do so, first go to the CPSOnline web site and select University of Akron (listed under "U"). Then,
- If you have already used the CPS technology in another course and, therefore, already have an account on the CPSOnline web site, log into your account and "enroll" in my Criminal Law class. (See below for class key.)
- If you have not previously used the CPS technology in another course, create an account and provide the required information in accordance with the instructions included with the CPSrf response pad, and "enroll" in my Criminal Law course. (See below for class key.)
Please be sure to "enroll" using your real name rather than as an anonymous student. Among other things, the clickers will be used for purposes of taking attendance.

Note: As of 1/13/08, the Computer Center had not yet updated the list of authorized users, so no one has access to the above-linked page or any other secure pages. Please check back from time to time until you are able to gain access.
