Dr. Martina Bode,
Director of Calculus, Dept. of Math, Stat, & Comp Sci I've used Acadly for
all my courses since Fall 2020 and would recommend it to everyone for both pedagogical and administrative reasons. It's been a
real time-saver and engagement booster for my colleagues and me.
Dr. Selva
Nadarajah, UIC Business Having used Acadly for
both in-person as well as remote attendance automation and engagement, I am confident that it will be an asset for other
instructors - no matter the department or discipline.
Prof. Alycia
McNamara, Dept. of Math, Stat, & Comp Sci I've used Acadly's
attendance in more than 200 lectures and it just works! As we return to in-person instruction, it'll be a regular feature of
my courses once again. Happy to share my experience with others too!
Students are 3x more likely to choose Acadly
Based on a student survey collected in a Fall 2022 course, where both Acadly and clickers were used
"I like that you can see how many people choose each answer on Acadly and that you do not feel rushed to complete the polls.
You can also look back at the questions to study for future exams which is very helpful."
"I love that we have a discussion chat in Acadly. I also feel like that app is much better in having the courses organized
by date. Acadly also notifies you whenever the class is ongoing."
"I prefer Acadly's user interface and have disliked other format for a few semesters. In my opinion, it is easier and
clearer to locate past class activities in Acadly."
"I like that in Acadly, you can see previous questions asked in class and access them even if you weren't in class, how
you can be confident that your answer actually did submit and see how everyone else responded."
