  • Yes, Polling was just released September, 2015. The presenter prepares their questions and answer choices on PowerPoint slides (mixed in with your regular presentation slides), saves the PowerPoint as a pdf, then uploads the PowerPoint in the presentation area.
  • Presenter questions can provide answers of:
    • Yes/No
    • True/False
    • A/B or A/B/C or A/B/C/D or A/B/C/D/E or A/B/C/D/E/F
  • For example, your polling question on your slide could be: Is the Sky blue?
    • Your poll answers listed on the slide below the question could be: (True/False)
  • After creating your polling questions and answers, you'll save the file as a pdf, and upload the pdf into the presentation area.
  • Once you display your polling question slide in the presentation area, you'll click on the polling button next to the presentation upload button, then pick the type of answers you provided for the question: True/False
    • Your students will see a button for each of the answer types you chose, a True button and a False button.
    • Your students will click on the button they think is the answer.
    • The presenter will see the results of the poll on the presentation slide (the number of students who picked each answer will be displayed)
    • The presenter can publish the poll results and write on the results using the whiteboard features available in the presentation area or can delete the results.
  • You can add as many poll question/answer slides to your presentation as you like.
  • Here's an example of how to add a polling question with three answers (A/B/C) on a slide:
    • The polling question could be: What color is the sky?
    • The answers could be listed:
      • A. Blue
      • B. Red
      • C. Grey
