All answers on our Poll widget are anonymous; currently, there is no way to track which student responded with what answer. This is something we are wokring on - so watch this space!
Polls are a powerful way to encourage participation, check understanding, and create a dynamic learning environment. With the our Poll widget, you can set up real-time classroom polls in seconds, making it easy to give every student a voice.

Giving students a chance to express their opinions fosters engagement and makes them feel valued. Polls create an inclusive learning environment, ensuring every student—whether outspoken or shy—has an opportunity to contribute.
example:
Ask, "Which character do you relate to most in this story?" to spark class discussions in literature lessons.
Polls aren’t just for assessments—they’re also great for classroom activities! We've created lots of ready-made screens with Polls that teachers around the world use in their teaching.
