The academic technology services and innovation team is looking for faculty members to participate in a pilot project of Poll Everywhere, which enables digital polling and student-response gathering using laptops or other electronic devices that they already have with them, rather than requiring additional devices such as clickers. Faculty can create questions in a number of formats to collect various kinds of information, from attendance taking to status checks on students’ grasp of lecture content. Polls created with the program can be easily integrated into media you already use on a daily basis.
For more details on the pilot project or to request an account, please see the Poll Everywhere Pilot page. Training is available if desired and can be scheduled using the training request form on the ATSI homepage on PilotsUP.
For additional questions and information, or to share your own ideas on how we can utilize Poll Everywhere, please contact ATSI at atsi@up.edu.
