Only sessions with approved ARS will have access to this feature.
Default Settings
- No timer set on polls; speaker advances to the next slide when ready.
- Once you advance to the next slide, the poll will automatically close.
How to Prepare Your Slide Deck
- Insert the question slide in your slide deck, where you would like the poll to appear. Be sure to note the correct answer if there is one. At this time we only support multiple choice type questions.
- If you have more than one poll, continue to do this throughout your slide deck
- There is no limit to how many polls you can have in your presentation.
Our team will take care of the rest and configure the polls into our system and your slide deck. Your question slides will be replaced with automated polling slides.
During Your Presentation: How Will It Work for You (As the Presenter)?
Once you reach the polling slide, it will automatically activate the poll. The number of votes casted will display at the bottom.
When you are ready to move forward, click to move to the next slide and the next slide will display the results and correct answer.
NOTE: Once you click to the next slide, this will automatically CLOSE the poll and you cannot go back.
