iClickers:
- Basic iClicker Information
- List of Students not yet Registered
  If you see your name on the above list you need to register your iclicker at: http://www.iclicker.com/registration. Registration through TED at UCSD will not work for our class.
- You can check your participation at the following link. Voting history is listed by your student id number. This list was printed after the Feb 17 lecture. The list shows the total number of lectures that each student participated in as well as participation for each individual lecture. For the final participation grade I will start counting from the second week onward (however, you will get credit if you participated during the first week). I have already spoken to some students who had problems with their clicker during the first few weeks and will adjust their scores later.

Will cover material presented in lecture from chapters 15, 6, and 7 in the text, including the material presented on El Nino.
I put together a list of sample questions that I would ask if the exams were short answer format. The multiple choice questions I use for the exams are often based on these questions. I thought they would be helpful to look at as a study guide. Study Questions
