Hi there,
We’d love to know more about this “one card” idea. Would you mind sharing what you had in mind for this by adding some detail to this post (so other teachers can also add their comments and votes)!
Thanks,
Team Plickers

Shapes for the little ones!
I would love it if Kindergarten teachers had an option of using shapes instead of letters on the cards and questions. For example, a circle instead of A so it would be easier for kindergarteners to identify their correct answer.

Chose amount of cards.
When you print them, you should let us choose how many cards you want.

We would like to generate large numbers of cards with a name on it for our faculty attending PD sessions in large auditoriums.
Easy way to take attendance? We could avoid long lines signing in and prevent signing in friends who aren't there. We have a badge scanning system, but there could still be lines waiting to scan. And we have multiple sessions and classes. I'm not sure we have that many mobile scanners.

Instead of a minimum for 40 cards, make the minimum 10 cards per set
When I saw the number of minimum set of cards it was 40 for the standard pack. Can you decrease your number to 10? If you have 7 students in your class, would you waste paper and take 40 different Plickers cards? Please make a new pack of cards which consists of 10 different cards.

Adjust margins for fewer cuts.
Rather than centering the images on the cards, move the images so that three of the four margins are the same.
For example, on the standard cards where the top margin looks about 1 inch, make the left margin the same 1 inch. Then you only have to cut the right margin, not both left and right to make the cards square. On the Large Cards, move the images up an inch or two so that only the bottom needs to be cut. (And maybe faint guide lines to know where to cut.)
This would make the cards neater and…

Border around QR
I would like to have the option to print cards with or without a border around the QR code. My students cut & glue the cards into a notebook. A box around the code would make this easier and neater.

Increase plicker image size proportionally & centered for letter or legal size card stock and choose custom margins when printing them
I'd like to have a little larger plicker image than the "small" so if I could print out the small plickers 2 to a page but then "scale" the image up 10-20% while the image continues to center itself according to the custom margins I entered then Life would be more awesome in my classroom. The small card is just a little too small to be seen from the other end of the classroom while the large plicker is way too large. Somewhere in the middle would be absolutely Perfect! Small Medium Large

A large font expanded set would be awesome!
A large font expanded set would be awesome because we have two teachers that teach together and have 48 kids. But the little cards are too small for the little kids I think.

Find a way that students can't cheat and peak at each other's card
I teach 6th grade and the students glance at each other's cards. It would be great to come up with a way that students can't cheat.

Cards for Primary Grades
As a first grade teacher I had to come up with a way for my children to hold the card the right way. Often they were covering part of the bar code with their fingers (the one with 2 per page). So I put stickers on the four corners and call them their finger spots. This way they know where their fingers should be and don't cover any of the bar code for easy scanning. It would be great if these could be printed on the card though so they are more durable.

Different sized qr codes
be able to print at least 4 QR codes to a page. Or have them the size of "name tag" Avery sticker labels to stick to the back of other answer methods such as personal white boards.

Hi friends,
You can print 4 QR codes to a page by printing the standard set with 2 pages per 8.5 × 11″ sheet. Since each standard page has 2 Plickers QR codes on them, when you print 2 per page, it will automatically have 4 codes per page for you!
Best,
Jenn

Stickers
To make the letters larger, I simply placed sticky dots over the existing letters and rewrote the letters, larger, with a fine tipped marker. It makes it easier for young students.

Gridded Responses
Plickers is great but being limited to multiple choice can be a real setback as a teacher. I have seen different programs and apps that have the ability to scan gridded response and bubble sheets. Seeing these got me to thinking that it would be really great to have a two sided card. On one side would be the current multiple choice plicker card but on the other side there would be a gridded response area. Students could fill in the gridded resonse bubbles with either a dry erase marker or dry erase crayon (if the cards were laminated). To…
