Empowering Your PowerPoint with Poll Everywhere™
Wednesday, July 20, 2022
Event Description
You've probably been told that PowerPoint is the "poison pill" of lecturing. Slide by slide, you slowly numb your audience with densely-packed information. Truth be told, it doesn't need to be that way. Poll Everywhere™, an "audience response system", can enliven your presentation and give you real-time feedback on your audience's engagement. Before the session, you'll sign up for a Poll Everywhere™ account. In the 1.5-hour live session, you'll learn the capabilities of Poll Everywhere™ to engage your learners and create Polls yourself. Space is limited. Don't wait to sign up!
By the end of this workshop, participants should be able to:
1. Describe pedagogical strategies of using Poll Everywhere™ to sustain learner attention and gauge learner engagement during a didactic session
2. List the types of questions, and their applications, available from Poll Everywhere™.
3. Demonstrate that they can create a Poll Everywhere™ poll
