Hear from the entire class at once
Poll Everywhere gives shy or reluctant students a way to respond freely alongside their peers. Use interactive questions to gauge understanding and adjust your lecture based on feedback from the entire room. Students respond simultaneously from the privacy of their tablets or other devices.
Since feedback is anonymous, everyone can focus on what is said rather than who said it. All students have an equal opportunity to be heard.

Constant connection between students and educators
"[Poll Everywhere] helps a lot of shyer students who don't always contribute in class voice their opinions a bit louder."
This quote comes from one of senior lecturer Deborah Husbands' students at the University of Westminster. "We feel more comfortable with each other now," said another student. "We feel like we can talk to each other because it's something fun to do."
Check out this video to see Husbands and her class demonstrate how you can incorporate a student response system into your classroom.
