There is no self-paced mode with iClicker
At our institution we traded the deep feature set of PRS for the simpler...but more reliable iClicker

So, when we got to an iRAT (made with the on-line IFAT Test Maker) we simply indicated which IFAT answer sheet that Response was to use. Students had the hard copy of the iRAT before them; they just used the "homework, self-paced" mode on the Response clicker. Students would also mark their paper copies, taking them to the Team to do the tRAT and the scratch-off on the IFAT form. We collected the hard copies and the completed IFAT forms. It worked great.

My University just switched to iClicker this past fall semester, and this is the first time I will be using it, now this spring semester. It seems iClicker has nothing equivalent to a "self-paced, homework" type mode.

Also, I guess one has to somehow use the "Question List" feature and somehow associate it with these PowerPoint slide based questions?
