Best used as a formative assessment tool (i.e., not counted for a grade), polls can help you reinforce the material you cover in your lectures. Some considerations for using polls:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Start off a lecture with a poll that recaps material students read prior to class or from a previous class session<\/li>\n<li>Use a poll at checkpoints during lectures to assess student understanding of new material or connections to previous material<\/li>\n<li>End class with a poll as an exit ticket to see what students took away from class<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>With this data, you can then gain valuable insights as to where your students are thriving and struggling, both as an entire class and, with some tools, at a student-by-student level, allowing for interventions when students are having difficulty understanding material before a higher-stakes assessment, such as a project or exam. This also doubles as a metacognitive tool for your students, giving them a chance to realize where gaps in their own knowledge may be in a low-stakes environment.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"prpl-button\"><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/itdsevents.montclair.edu\/calendar\/itds-workshops?t=g&amp;q=polling&amp;cid=15202&amp;cal=15202&amp;inc=0\" target=\"_blank\">Register for a Poll Everywhere Workshop<\/a><\/span><span class=\"prpl-button\"><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/itds.as.me\/polleverywhere\" target=\"_blank\">Sign up for a 1:1 Poll Everywhere Consultation<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Poll Everywhere Resources<\/h2>\n<ul>\n<li><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/support.polleverywhere.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/1260804132809-What-is-Poll-Everywhere-\" target=\"_blank\">What is Poll Everywhere?<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/support.polleverywhere.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/1260801551509-Create-an-activity\" target=\"_blank\">Create a Poll Everywhere Activity<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polleverywhere.com\/app\/google-slides\/chrome\">Poll Everywhere &amp; Slideware<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.polleverywhere.com\/app\">Poll Everywhere Applications<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/support.polleverywhere.com\/hc\/en-us\" target=\"_blank\">Poll Everywhere Support<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/support.polleverywhere.com\/hc\/en-us\/articles\/18983623392923-Canvas-LTI-Advantage-usage-guide-for-Educators#h_01HAWK751XFTPRGNS45K9RMSJP\" target=\"_blank\">Poll Everywhere Canvas Integration<\/a> (<em>Note: Option A is already configured campus-wide<\/em>)<\/li>\n<li><a rel=\"noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/training.polleverywhere.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Self Guided Training for Poll Everywhere<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.montclair.edu\/itds\/instructional-tech\/polling-tools\/student-guide-how-to-access-poll-everywhere-in-class-polls\/\">Student Guide: How to Access Poll Everywhere In-class Polls<\/a><\/li>\n<li><strong>Poll Everywhere Contact Information:<\/strong>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>Email:<\/strong> support@polleverywhere.com<\/li>\n<li><strong>Phone:<\/strong> (800) 388-2039<\/li>\n<li><strong>Hours:<\/strong> 8 am &#8211; 8 pm EST (M-F)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>As of February 2024, Poll Everywhere is now available campus-wide!
