Qwizdom Remotes

Welcome, U-M Students!

The U-M Computer Showcase is the campus sales center for these handy little devices. We'll sell over 1,000 per week at the start of the term, making for some long lines at the Showcase! Here is some information to help you expedite the process:

Q. What's a Qwizdom?

A. A Qwizdom is a hand-held device that's being used to foster class participation in many U-M courses.

Q. Where can I get one, and how much will it cost?

A. The U-M Computer Showcase sells new Qwizdoms for $35 and (when available) used Qwizdoms for $22. They come with AA batteries, so they're ready to use at time of purchase. They can be purchased via cash, check, or credit card (Mastercard, Visa, or Discover) year-round at both Showcase locations:

Q. What about returns?

A. Qwizdoms that are unopened and in good condition may be returned within 10 business days for a full refund. Products that have been opened or returned after ten days are subject to standard Showcase return policies. You will need your receipt for any exchange or return, so be sure to save it!

Q. How does this thing work?

A. Your instructor will explain how to set up and use the Qwizdom. For more info on the remotes, see the LSA Instruction Group's Qwizdom site.

Q. Where do I go if I have problems?

A. The U-M Computer Showcase can help troubleshoot technical problems. Be sure to bring your receipt in case you need to return or exchange it.

Q. Will I be able to use my Qwizdom in more than one class, or more than one term?

A. Yes, you can you the same device for multiple classes and for more than one term. Certain areas of study (such as LS&A sciences) use Qwizdoms in many courses.

Q. What happens when I don't need it anymore?

A. Sell it! The Showcase will buy back your Qwizdom until December 24, 2009 (for approximately half the purchase price) as long as it's in good working order and you have your receipt. Another option is to sell your used Qwizdom to a fellow student at the start of a new term. For more information on the Qwizdom Q4RF Student Remote, see the LSA Instruction Group's Qwizdom site. Only U-M students may buy and sell Qwizdoms at the Showcase.
