Eric and Marty diving into classroom polling and quiz apps—like Poll Everywhere, Mentimeter, and others—that allow professors to gather instant student feedback. Live polls inject interactivity into lectures and have been shown to improve attention, participation, and retention.

Quick Tips for Success:

· Integrate polls directly into PowerPoint or Keynote (Poll Everywhere plug-in).

· Use open-ended questions sparingly; they work best for brainstorming.

· Try a pre-lecture quiz to gauge understanding and a post-quiz to reinforce learning.

· Encourage students to create their own polls for peer learning.

Practical Approaches

· Keep polls short — 1–3 quick questions maintain energy.

· Use polls as transitions between lecture segments.

· Visualize results instantly to spark discussion.

· Rotate between tools to match class size and goals.

· Record responses and trends to inform future lessons.
