Poll Everywhere is an audience participation platform which instructors can use for student engagement, classroom response, and assessment. You can receive and display feedback on everything from student attendance to comprehension of knowledge either during class or out-of-class. The software allows you to design and deliver various question types, check student understanding, and promote peer-to-peer learning with real-time analytics and team-based assessments. Students can respond on a range of devices including: computer, tablet, and smart-phone.
Poll Everywhere accounts are free for Tufts instructors and students for educational use within courses. To set up an instructor account, contact ETS at edtech@tufts.edu.
