Chat, Q&A, polls and live quizzes
Keep students involved: answer questions, launch quick polls, and run a quiz from the course’s existing quiz questions.
Chat
Messages in Chat are visible to everyone in the lesson.
Q&A
Students ask the lecturer questions in the Q&A panel; questions are shared with the class. Lecturers can Reply with an answer for everyone, mark a question Answered, Dismiss it, or Reopen it. Filter by Open, Answered or All.
Polls
- Open Polls and choose Launch a poll.
- Type the question and at least two options (Add option for more).
- Optionally set a Time limit, then click Launch poll.
- Students vote from a prompt on their screen and see results after voting. Click Close poll when done.
Live quizzes
Live quizzes reuse the questions you already wrote: any quiz task in an assignment or quiz block in a lesson of this course can be run live.
- Open the Quiz panel and Choose a quiz (assignment quiz or lesson quiz).
- Set the Time per question and click Start quiz.
- Students answer each question on their own screen. When the time runs out, everyone sees the correct answer and how the class did. Click Next question to continue.
- After the last question, click Show results for the class summary. You can stop early at any time with End quiz.
