Kahoot! stands with Ukraine

Kahoot! is committed to supporting Ukrainian educators and learners affected by the current crisis. To protect the integrity of our platform and our users, we will suspend offering Kahoot!’s services in Russia, with the exception of self-study.

Ukrainian educators and learners need our support

We are deeply troubled and concerned by the violence and loss of life resulting from the Russian invasion of Ukraine. We stand with the people of Ukraine and we hope for the swiftest and most peaceful possible end to the current crisis. 

Kahoot! has received a number of requests from schools and educators in Ukraine requesting the help of our services to continue teaching despite the disruption of the war. We have supported each of these and we are now offering Kahoot! EDU solutions for free for both K-12 and higher education institutions for one year to Ukrainian schools in need. In addition, we are fast-tracking translation and localization of the Kahoot! platform into Ukrainian. 

Suspending commercial services and sales in Russia

Our commercial footprint in the Russian market is very limited. We do not have offices or representation in the country, nor do we have any physical operations or data services there. The overwhelming majority of our users in Russia are teachers and students using our free service.

Kahoot! is abiding by the international sanctions regime, and does not allow sales to sanctioned individuals or entities in Russia. Shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine, Kahoot! initiated a process to suspend offering of all commercial services in Russia. This includes but is not limited to online sales, assisted sales, app store sales and prohibiting sales to Russian corporations and organizations.

Prioritizing safe and secure use of the Kahoot! platform

As part of our mission to make learning awesome, and as education remains a fundamental human right, we offer teachers, students and personal users free access to our platform. We do this in more than 200 countries and regions in a spirit similar to public commons services, such as Wikipedia. 

Similarly, inclusivity is one of Kahoot!’s overarching values. As such, our aim is to, whenever and wherever possible, offer children, schools and others the opportunity to use digital tools for impactful education and learning, irrespective of their background or location. This has been our guiding principle also for offering our service in Russia.

Among our first responses to the crisis was to swiftly expand our global moderation team’s monitoring on all Russia-related content to safeguard the integrity of the platform. 

However, as the situation continues to escalate, it is vital that we are able to ensure that our platform is used according to our own guidelines and standards. Therefore, in addition to suspending sales, we will be taking all possible and necessary steps to suspend access to Kahoot! services in Russia, with the eventual exception of self-study mode which will feature only content verified by Kahoot!.

This will enable students, school children and other individual users to continue their learning journeys both safely and responsibly. We will continue to assess ways in which our services can be offered safely and responsibly to support all learners and educators, also those based in Russia. 

Supporting our employees 

At Kahoot!, we are not just a team in name, we are a team in practice. As such, we are committed to the well-being of our employees, especially those with ties to Ukraine, or those that in other ways are particularly affected by the war. We are providing these colleagues with any support we can. 

Acknowledging the current situation, the Kahoot! Group made an emergency aid donation to Save the Children and the Norwegian Refugee Council. This is a contribution to support life-saving assistance and protection for innocent Ukrainian children, families and refugees. 

As the situation in Ukraine continues to develop our teams across the company are actively monitoring the crisis so that we can respond in the most responsible and supportive way possible. 

Our hearts go out to the people of Ukraine, their loved ones, and anyone affected by this crisis.

How to get instant feedback from your audience.

Getting your audience engaged is the most important thing you can do when presenting. We previously published an article on Zeetings , a program that lets the audience become part of the story by using an interactive program directly from their smartphones. Here, Farshad has reviewed ten other programs that you can use to make sure your audience becomes part of the story, instead of just listening to it. 

Sometimes the biggest enemy of a presenter is doubt. One can get a bit jittery by looking at uncertain faces in the crowd. You might want to know what your audience is thinking so that you may be able to refine your presentation in case you’re going off track. One of the best ways to find out what your audience is thinking is to use polls. Conducting live polls during a presentation session can help you gather instant feedback and fine tune your presentation on the fly to ensure you can be on top of your game.

There are a number of polling apps, devices and plugins that you can use for conducting live polls during presentations. Different polling tools provide different options, including some which even enable presenters to continuously gather audience feedback and view brief statistics as they present their slides. If you want to use polls in your presentations like a  pro, then here are 10 best polling tools to gather instant audience feedback.

1)  Presentain

Presentain is a presentation web app where you can either upload and present a PDF, PPT or PPTX file or fetch a file using your Google Drive account to present your presentation right from an internet browser. Presentain provides presenters with a URL that can be shared with the audience so they can follow your slides live as you present them, using any internet connected device.

Your audience can also take part in Live polls using the same URL, allowing you to not only present your slides by broadcasting them via the internet but also to instantly gather audience feedback by offering them polls. In fact, your audience can even ask you questions using their internet connected devices.

Here is a brief introductory video which shows all the basic features of Presentain.

2)  PollEverywhere

PollEverywhere is an audience response system which enables creating polls in PowerPoint and Google Slides. The PollEverywhere add-in for PowerPoint or the Chrome extension for Google Slides can be used to create polls and gather audience feedback by allowing people to participate in polls via internet connected devices such as smartphones tablets or laptops. Furthermore, your audience can also respond to polls via Twitter.

PollEverywhere has a comprehensive set of features for conducting polls and quizzes using open ended questions, multiple choice questions, true or false quizzes, as well as clickable image and Q&A polls.

Here is a short video which explains the main features of PollEverywhere.

3)  Mentimeter

Mentimeter is an audience response system which allows presenters to create polls using multiple choice or open ended questions, polls based on a point-based system, or use dual axis or scales to gather audience feedback. Your audience will be able to cast their votes via a designated URL. This means your audience can instantly cast their votes by using their mobile phones, tablets or laptops during a Live presentation session.

Here is an introductory video which explains how Mentimeter works.

Swipe is a comprehensive presentation web app which can not only allow you to conduct polls but you can also use it as a PowerPoint alternative. You can get started with Swipe by uploading a PDF or image file, and even embed videos from YouTube and Vimeo.

With Swipe you can design your slide decks and add polls to your presentations. Like most polling systems, Swipe provides a polling URL for the audience to respond to polls.

5)  ParticiPoll

ParticiPoll is a PowerPoint add-in which can help you add polls to your PowerPoint slides. You can start using Participoll by signing-up for a free account, picking a polling URL and downloading the add-in to start adding polls to your PowerPoint slides. Your audience will be able to respond to polls using your custom polling URL.

The data gathered via Participoll is logged to your account, which means you can login anytime to your Participoll account to view audience feedback.

6) Ask The Room

If you’re looking for a free and easy way of conducting a Live poll during a presentation, you can also use Ask The Room . With Ask The Room you can instantly set up a poll by using options like ‘Yes’, ‘No’ and ‘Don’t Know’. Ask the Room requires no sign-up and you can begin your poll by going to the home page, and clicking on Start Poll. You will be provided with a custom URL to share with your audience where they can poll, and you will be able to see the result in real-time via your browser.

7) ActiVote

If you are looking for a voting system for educational purposes that comes with associated hardware clickers that your audience can use, then Activote can be a good option. ActiVote is a comprehensive polling system by which you can create polls on your computer and allow your audience to respond using ActiVote clickers.

The primary use of ActiVote is for educational purposes and it can be a good option for conducting quizzes or assessing your students using various voting based activities. ActiVote works with Windows, Mac and Linux.

OMBEA is an audience response system which can be used to insert interactive slides in PowerPoint to conduct polls during presentations. OMBEA not only works with laptops, smartphones and tablets but is also compatible with remote clickers.

You can conduct polls using open ended or multiple choice questions and enable your audience to respond using remote clickers or internet connected devices. This makes OMBEA easy to use and expands the number of devices that can be instantly turned into remote clickers.

9) iClicker

If you are looking for a clicker based polling system, which also supports clicker devices, then iClicker is an audience response system that you should look into. This clicker based polling system enables you to gather audience feedback by allowing them to poll using smartphones, tablets, or clicker remotes.

To find out all about how iClicker works, see the developer’s introductory video given below.

10) ClickAPad

ClickAPad is another comprehensive audience response system which not only provides a polling add-in for PowerPoint but also offers clicker remotes for purchase or rent.

These are really good recommendations. I’ve also used a tool called HappyScore http://about.happyscore.io , which is a bit different.

Good stuff, Farshad. Thanks!

27th September 2017 at 3:35 pm

Let me add Meeting Pulse to the list. It works well and looks really nice. https://meet.ps

People use it for classes and lectures because the free version allows to poll up to 50 people. It’s also good for business meetings and webcasts. Features include – 15 second to set up a poll – all popular questions types – works for every device – no need to install anything – very simple

You can also run Q&A and create surveys.

Great post. I stumbled across the post while I was searching for embedded polls. To add another tool to the mix – Pubble Live Q&A: https://www.pubble.io/live-qa

Pubble’s live Q&A is deigned to be incorporated into the conference / event website. It enables the participants to ask questions and follow the thread live. It includes a presenter mode for the presenter to display selected questions on the main stage.

Moderation is supported. You can also push in questions from Twitter. Lots of other cool features, detailed on the product page above.

5th January 2018 at 11:48 am

Thanks for sharing this John. It looks like your tool would be useful for hosting live audience Q&As. Have you seen our article on this: https://www.presentation-guru.com/5-easy-to-use-solutions-to-boost-your-audience-engagement/ which gives tips on how best to incorporate Q&A sessions into your presentation?

Maybe a good idea to add NorthPolls to the list: http://www.northpolls.com . NorthPolls is extremely easy to operate by the chairman of the day on the stage via his or her own smartphone.

Hi! Great blog! To get instant feedback from audience and customers, you can use feedback apps. Feedback apps are cost efficient and provide accurate results. Soft Intelligence Data Centre has engagement apps for organizations and businesses which help in the overall growth. You must check out them once.

19th June 2018 at 12:14 pm

We will do! Thanks for the tip.

12th July 2018 at 1:00 pm

Nice article! I just wanted to introduce you to a polling based mobile app that I developed recently, called Pollpop (pollpopapp.app.link). It’s about organizing polls and discussions within your groups or the public at large. Let me know your thoughts. Cheers!

13th July 2018 at 10:02 am

Thanks Dev – we’ll take a look.

I tried to use Presentain, and it’s essentially useless in America. It’s based in Ukraine, and their app isn’t available to the US market. It’s a paid platform, so buyer beware.

18th September 2018 at 1:06 pm

Hi Melissa,

I have previously used Presentain without any issues, however I recently tried it again after seeing your comment and it seems there might be a bug preventing users to log into the app. You can try other options in the post to gather audience feedback as an alternative.

Recently, I used Mentimeter for feedback after a presentation at my organization. I used emoticons representing satisfied and unsatisfied audience and conducted a Live poll and it worked out perfectly.

The whole idea is assinine. Real science shows once you are part of the group tour measurements are worthless. The audience knowing they are being viewed and measured will give answers they think you want instead of true opinions. Waste of time and money more harm then good as it will support your preconceived notions and give failed erroneous data.

23rd January 2019 at 4:36 am

I have a new engagement tool for free has a lot of features to engage and attract your audience http://www.enablerplus.com

Check out http://www.emojot.com – it is a full-fledged voice-of-audience solution (as well as a voice-of-customer and voice-of-employee solution). Its capabilities are best suited for enterprises. It has been used for TV, radio and large conferences as well as in small group meetings.

Please consider Pollaborator.appspot.com

Pollaborator http://pollaborator.appspot.com/ is a unique, free web app which enables anyone with a google account to create a PARTICIPATIVE poll: in addition to indicating preferences in Pollaborator, respondents can add their own questions/comments for future respondents to indicate their preferences, too.

These are some great tools. I would also add to the list the Swift Polling by ExciteM ( https://swift.excitem.com ) which allows for PowerPoint integration and SMS voting. This is a life-saving solution for cases when people do not own smartphones.

19th April 2020 at 5:21 pm

I can recommend to have a look at Poll For All ( https://pollforall.com ) The poll result view in the app gets real time updates and can be used in presentations. There is a web app, which can be opened directly in a desktop browser.

21st April 2020 at 4:07 pm

I will take a look – thanks for bringing it to our attention.

20th June 2020 at 1:51 pm

Hi, farshad! These are a really awesome tool in today’s world to take instant feedback from the audience and most of them I never heard about. I will definitely go to use them and share it as much as possible because it creates a lot of disturbance during a session to ask audience review over a certain topic. Thanks a lot for sharing them!

Try Pollpop for voting and discussions within your group. It’s pretty slick. You can ask a question to your group (along with images, videos, maps, even other widgets, and options). Ask as a private or semi-private option. Your group gets a chance to vote and discuss the topic. You also get a cool analysis of the voting results, so you clearly know who stands where. You can also add your group members as connections for future discussions.

Excellent information and comments by everyone. I am looking for free software to run polls from my PowerPoint presentation for my students without adding any cost to them – they are already paying a hefty price for books and online resources. Poll Everywhere looks good but charges students. Has anyone else a product to share with me. Please send information to me at [email protected] . Thank you for the belp.

How to Make an Interactive Quiz in PowerPoint in Less Than 1 Minute (50 Use Cases)

Sara Wanasek

Want to engage your audience, get them involved, and check their understanding without learning and juggling another tool? Well let’s make an interactive quiz in PowerPoint that’s as easy as adding a button, customizable, and to native PowerPoint.

While PowerPoint offers the most compared other tools, one thing it is said to lack is audience interactivity. Delivering new material and keeping students or whomever your audience is engaged, is often a balance that’s hard to strike, but with the help of ClassPoint, you can make interactive PowerPoint presentations and  add audience response questions right to your PowerPoint slides  in no time!

How to Turn Any PowerPoint Slide Into An Interactive Quiz

So how can you turn your PowerPoint slide into an interactive quiz question? With 3 simple steps , using the Microsoft PowerPoint add-in ClassPoint .

ClassPoint is free and the Basic plan includes 5 different kinds of interactive quiz types — Multiple Choice , Short Answer , Word Cloud , Slide Drawing and Image Upload , while the Pro plan includes more quiz types including Fill in the Blanks , Audio Record and Video Upload . We will show you all of them in this article, including use cases for each quiz type!

Turn Your PowerPoint Slide Into An Interactive Multiple Choice Question

To follow along, first download ClassPoint , and continue reading! 🔽 Let’s get started!

1: Add Button to Turn your Slide into an Interactive Quiz Question

To turn any PowerPoint slide into interactive Multiple Choice questions first add the question as text on your slide .

Then, click on the Inknoe ClassPoint tab on your PowerPoint ribbon up top. To make your Multiple Choice question interactive, click on the Multiple Choice icon, and a button will appear on your slide.

The question settings will open on the right where you can set the number of options along with the  correct answer(s) . You can also set the Play Options of your choice, and that’s it! You have now successfully turned your slide into an interactive quiz question.

2: Run the Interactive Quiz in PowerPoint Slideshow

Now that you have created your interactive Multiple Choice quiz in PowerPoint, let’s run it with your students!

When you begin your presentation in Slideshow mode, you will notice a  class code  appears on the top right-hand corner. This is the code your audience will use to join your class. You can use a random class code generated for each session, or you can create your own saved class with its unique class code .

Students can join your class on any device at www.classpoint.app by typing in the class code and their name, or scan the QR code provided on screen. Once they have joined your class, they will see your slides on their devices, and are ready to answer any interactive quiz questions!

When you are ready to run your question, click on the question button to begin receiving responses from your students. Students will be prompted to submit their responses. You will be able to see the real-time responses on your screen. Tips: If you want to keep the responses hidden until everyone has submitted, hide them with the eye icon, or minimize the window. (Auto-minimizing is a Play option too!)

When all of your students have answered your question, you can “ Close Submissions “, and view the colorful bar graph displaying your audience responses! Click the toggle to reveal the correct answer , and click on any of the answer choices to show which students submitted it. You can also award stars to your students who answered the questions correctly!

Tip: Create a saved class so your students can join with the same name and class code every time. This not only smooths out the joining process, but it also enables stars awarded to students to accumulate over time, which you can reveal on the leaderboard , or keep track of for yourself inside your Class List in edit mode.

3: Review Activity Submissions After Class

Once you close the submissions in the activity window, the results are automatically saved inside the question button!

You will notice your question button has now turned green , indicating that there are responses stored inside. You can click on the button to review the results again by clicking on “ View Responses ” on the side panel.

If you’d like to clear the responses, click “ Delete Responses “, and the question button will turn back to blue, and you can now run the Multiple Choice question again.

To add more variety to the way your receive text-based responses for your interactive quizzes, you can select Short Answer , Fill-in the Blanks and Word Cloud question types from the Inknoe ClassPoint tab on your PowerPoint ribbon, and repeat Step #2 and #3 on the list above to start running these quiz types on your PowerPoint slideshow.

Enhance Any Presentation With a Quiz

Whether you’re a teacher, team lead, corporate trainer, or public speaker, you probably know that a successful presentation can make or break your audience’s focus and concentration.

Adding a game element, like a live quiz to your presentation can help you enhance your presentation and captivate their attention. Whether you use it for a PowerPoint presentation at work or an in-class quiz for your students, it could be greatly beneficial. Read on for some fun audience quiz ideas for you to work with.

Gauge Your Audience’s Knowledge With a True/False Quiz

A  true/false question  is essentially a trivia question with two answer options to choose from – true or false. This quiz type is perfect for live presentations because it’s fast and dynamic.

Use it as an icebreaker at the beginning of your presentation to engage your audience while getting to know them. It will help you understand how familiar they are with your topic and give you a chance to adapt your talk to their knowledge if needed.

You could also use a  true/false quiz  at the end of your presentation to discover how much information the audience retained.

Excite Your Audience With a Trivia Competition

A trivia quiz tests people’s grasp of a subject in a gamified way by asking knowledge questions and measuring how many correct answers they get.   Use a trivia quiz  to create a competition that engages that competitive spirit in your quiz participants.

Here are a few tips to consider when making your presentation quiz competition:

• If you want to grab your audience’s attention or boost engagement in training sessions, let them know that you’ll be ending the lesson with a challenging trivia contest.
• You could also start off the session with a trivia competition and spend the rest of the time going through the answers, keeping the suspense alive while sharing information and knowledge.
• Introduce a time element by defining the winner as the person who gets the most correct answers in the shortest amount of time to make the contest more exciting and make sure it doesn’t take too long. You could add a quiz timer or bring a stopwatch for extra pressure.
• Add a prize to the mix to give people an extra incentive to take part. It doesn’t have to be big, it could be a voucher, a free event ticket, or even a silly sticker set. As long as it gives the winner recognition and puts a smile on their face, it will do the job. Using an online stopwatch during the quiz for each question will also add a bit of suspense.

While people are answering the questions you can look at the results dashboard to see submissions and results. Here you can view the ratio between correct and incorrect answers as well as the timestamp. If you want, you can use this information for live commentary during the contest.

Try this trivia competition

Use a picture quiz to end your lesson with a bang.

Adding visually stimulating content to your presentation can grab people’s attention and leave a lasting impression. A  picture quiz  uses engaging images to draw people in and illustrate the questions, answer options, and results. Conclude any topic of discussion with an image quiz to sum things up in a way that your quiz participants will enjoy and remember.

Spark Conversation With a Resonating Quiz

Sometimes it can be challenging to get an audience to shift from the comfortable position of being a passive listener to being an active participant. A good quiz can be a big step in the right direction.

All you need to do is ask 2-3 surprising trivia questions or challenging personality questions. After people answer them privately they will be more inclined to discuss the question topics in the group because they are already invested and involved.

Encourage Introspection With a Personality Quiz

While trivia is the classic choice for a quiz night or live presentations, a personality quiz can also enrich any class or lecture, and add depth as well as fun to your audience’s experience.

Unlike trivia quizzes, personality quizzes are less about knowledge and more about self-discovery. They don’t have incorrect or correct answers, they ask for your opinions or preferences and use them to tell you something about yourself.

Use a personality quiz  in your presentation to connect with your audience. Let’s say you’re giving a lecture about learning styles, you could start it off with a “What type of learner are you?” quiz to put them in touch with themselves in the context of your topic.

You could also invite them to share their results and talk about the experience to encourage them to empathize and connect with each other. It’s a memorable and experiential way to introduce a topic that could otherwise seem distant or theoretical.

FAQs About Presentation Quizzes

How to create your own quiz.

Creating your own quiz starts with selecting a goal and a topic. Based on that you can figure out which types of quizzes to create.

If, for example, you want to find out how much your audience knows about the French Revolution, make a knowledge quiz. If, on the other hand, you wish to help your audience discover what type of travelers they are, make a personality quiz.

Next, it’s time to write the result cards. Think about what message you want to give your audience based on their quiz answers. It’s usually best to keep these positive and encouraging.

Now move on to your questions. Make sure that they are clear and easy to understand, and don’t forget to include a number of answer options for people to choose from. If you’re making a personality quiz you should also associate each answer option with the relevant result.

Quiz-making is simplest when you have a user-friendly tool to work with. Ours lets you use a template or start from scratch. Adding visual elements to your quiz is also a good idea since it contributes significantly to engagement and completion levels.

Go to the top of this page for detailed guidelines, or simply get started right now .

What makes a quiz good?

A good quiz is one that gets people involved and gives them value. So, to make a good quiz you need to focus on your audience and figure out what would interest and challenge them.

On a more practical level, a good quiz usually uses friendly and humorous language, has 5-10 questions, fun images, and feel-good result cards.

For an extra boost, make your quiz more exciting by adding a quiz timer, or hiding results till the very end, personalizing it with skip logic, and increasing interactivity with CTA buttons, and answer explanations. Click here for more tips and best practices.

How to create a quiz competition?

To create a quiz competition you first need to make a trivia quiz. Then decide on the rules of the game. Something like the winner will be the first person to get all the questions right.

Introduce the competition dramatically to create a gameshow-like atmosphere. Of course, you could include a prize for the winner and runners-up to seal the deal.

How to integrate a quiz into your presentation?

You can integrate a quiz in your presentation in three ways:

• Copy the title and cover image of your quiz into your presentation and configure them as a hyperlink to your quiz. This option is good if you’re solving the quiz with your audience in person, or if your audience members each have individual access to the presentation.
• Create a slide to introduce the quiz and send the quiz link to your audience members via chat or messaging app. This option is good for remote presentations, where each participant is supposed to take the quiz separately.
• Turn your quiz link into a QR code and add it to your quiz slide for your audience to scan. This one is best for in-person presentations or remote presentations that are screen shared.

How do I host an interactive quiz?

Hosting an interactive quiz is easy, all you need is a bit of gusto and enthusiasm. The rest will take care of itself.

Write an exciting introduction that you can easily relay to your audience. Use it to prepare them for the experience without divulging too much information. After all, you want to keep them curious.

Depending on the quiz goals, you could also include a timer for each question. Add commentary during the quiz based on what you see on your dashboard. Things like “responses are starting to come in”, “I’m seeing some interesting results”, etc.

At the end of the quiz, you can share your dashboard showing the results on the presentation screen. Use the data as a conversation starter for the next section of your presentation, or as a way to announce the winner with flair. Just remember to make it fun, and interesting, and speak to your audience to keep them engaged.

10 interactive quiz styles to engage your audience

Please note: All native participant apps (iOS and Android app stores) will need to be updated to see the new quiz leaderboard updates.  Interactive quizzing can be used in many different ways, from setting the scene in a (virtual, hybrid or F2F) lecture or meeting with an icebreaker quiz to put everyone at ease, to running more intense quizzes to test knowledge throughout a session. Whatever the style of quiz you want to run, the live quiz should naturally fit into your online presentation without deterring from your content. It should complement your presentation and add value rather than being a last-minute, badly run quiz. No one wants a quiz that flops! 

If you want to run anonymous quizzes in mutiple recurring virtual classes or meetings, then consider how many times you should do this, from running quizzes every other week to just doing them in quarterly townhalls. Don't make it overkill for your audience! Here's a suggestion of some quiz styles for your inspiration: 

1. Trivia quizzes 

Trivia quizzes are great to test people on their general knowledge and to ask some fun fact questions based on popular culture topics. Here are some ideas for running live trivia quizzes:

• Run a 'guess the movie quote' to see if people can recall lines from famous films 
• ​See how much your audience knows about music, film or sport history with a fact test from well-known questions to some sneaky trick questions
• Try a 'guess the song' quiz and play the audio to the short segment of a song to put people's listening skills to the test. These type of questions are great for adding a different dynamic to your anonymous quiz and testing another variant of the 5 sensors

2. Seasonal quizzes

Seasonal quizzes such as a Halloween, Christmas, Valentine's or a St Patrick's themed quiz contest really helps to bring the spirit of the celebration to life. As it's a current event and a topical thing that might be on everyone's mind, it really helps people to be in the mood for the quiz and to see how much they know about each celebration or event. An extra tip when running a live audience quiz with Vevox is to add customisable backgrounds to the Vevox Present View  to bring your seasonal quiz to life. There are a range of themed template backgrounds within your Vevox dashboard to choose from to make it visually stand out! 

3. Challenging quizzes

If you really want to challenge your audience and to put their minds to the test, then a mastermind type quiz or Mensa IQ test can give even the best quizzers a chance to see how knowledgable they really are. If you do want to ease people into the quiz still, think about building up the difficulty level of each question, so it goes from hard to near impossible and extreme expert questions.  

4. A countdown quiz 

Inspired by 'who wants to a millionaire' and many other quiz shows, quiz questions that test your recall of knowledge and the speed of your answers can be a fun way to have a lightning quiz! To do this with Vevox, explain how long you will give your audience to answer the questions (e.g. 10 seconds), then open the quiz poll, read the question and close the quiz poll as soon as possible after reading the title so it tests the quick reactions of your audience. If you really want to set the atmosphere, then why not add some ongoing background music to create some more tension.  

5. Problem solving 

Brainteaser quizzes are great for testing another side to the brain as problem solving makes you think outside the box rather than recalling facts or just being a memory test. There are also several types of problem solving questions you ask from riddles, to mathematical or engineering based problems.  

6. Competition time!

Host an actual quiz competition to give your audience extra motivation to participate and entice them with a reward for being on the top of the leaderboard. As explained in our '5 top tips for running an interactive quiz with Vevox' , you do need to consider showing the leaderboard before you run the quiz and explaining how the scoring works so everyone knows from the outset. Simple rewards can provide an extra incentive for people to do their best in the quiz and to add some friendly competition. Cue the cheesy quiz lines "You've got to be in it, to win it!". 

7. Icebreaker quizzes 

Quizzes can also be effective for 'breaking the ice' and used as a tool to make an introduction in a class or meeting. From silly random questions, to questions about the organisation or even questions about a particular person (e.g. 'What is Susan from accounts well-known nickname'), all of these quirky topics can help to build a safespace and strike up a mutual trust to share people's thoughts or questions. Using Vevox's digital Q&A alongside this helps to make the quiz much more a conversation and allows users to engage with their peers.  

8. The 'mock' exam test 

Quizzing can also be used to prepare students for their real examinations and to gauge average scores to see the performance level of the class at that moment in time. The fact that you can choose to run an anonymous quiz with Vevox also allows students to feel much more at ease without feeling too scared or pressured to perform in the test exam. This live test exam can help to uncover any potential pitfalls or challenging questions that students still get confused by. This can help to formulate the agenda for your revision seminar and workshops to give your students some extra confidence going into the exam season. 

9. Numerical quiz

Another exciting and different way to run a quiz is to purely run questions that are based on numerical or statistcal answers. This quiz style can either be used to test the audience's mathematical skills or to see if they can use problem solving to identify the correct answer. For instance the question 'what was the average wage in 1960 in the United States of America?' Is it: 1. $1503,  2. $4007,   3. $9,810, 4. $17,0850. This question makes the audience think about what the earnings might have been around that period of time and to make a guesstimation based on the knowledge they have, rather than simply making calculations. Oh and the answer is 2. $4007 for those of you who just couldn't bare to know the answer!  

10. Geographical quiz

Personally, I love a geographical and world quiz! These quizzes can be used to ask many different types of questions from testing people on their knowledge of capital cities to their knowledge of geographical culture and general world trivia. World quizzes are great for enabling people to learn about different cultures and to learn things about their peers, such as their favorite holiday destinations or about their heritage. You can use Vevox’s Q&A alongside anonymous quizzing to create this inclusive and interactive dialogue to make your session much more a discussion!

How to Create a Quiz for Your Online Classes Using Google Slides

Quizzes are great tools to get your audience involved, as they need to participate and give their own answers. In fact, they are particularly useful when teaching children, as their attention gets diverted quite easily. This way, they will learn in an interactive and entertaining way.  Creating a quiz is not a complex thing to do, but it requires some time. In this tutorial, we are going to teach you how to create some question slides for your students using Google Slides . Let’s get started! 

Creating the Main Page of the Quiz

Creating the “right answer” slide, creating the “wrong answer” slide, linking slides.

• Open your Google Slides presentation.
• Select or create the slide to which you want to add the quiz.
• Type the title and the subtitle of your question using text boxes. Remember to use the fonts of the theme. The resulting slide will be coherent with the rest of the presentation and aesthetically appealing.
• If you need to change the font, size or style of your text, use the edition tools in the toolbar.
• Add images if you need them. If you are creating this interactive game for children, it is worth adding some cute pictures or drawings to make it more appealing. If you don’t know how to insert, crop or mask images , you can learn more about it in this tutorial. Here, we have embedded three different illustrations that will work as reply options.

Pro tip: if you need more images or illustrations go to the Alternative resources slide at the end of the presentation.

• You need to add button-like shapes to your options. Later on, we will link each button to a “correct” or “wrong answer” slide. We are going to use circles for our example. In Insert, select Shape → Shapes → Oval.
• Click and drag the cursor to add the circle.
• Resize it clicking and dragging the squares of the outline. If you keep pressed Shift, you’ll create a perfect circle.
• Change the color of the shape according to the colors of the theme.
• Click Fill color and choose the hue that appears in the inside of the shape.
• Click Border color and do the same for the border of the shape.
• To add more buttons, keep pressing the Ctrl button while you click on your first button and drag the copy close to the image of the other animals. Pressing Shift at the same time will keep them aligned.

Pro Tip: You can add a shadow to your circles to make them look like real buttons. In the toolbar click on More (...) → Format options  → Drop shadow and choose the effect that suits you best. To learn more about how to apply effects to an image in Google Slides, you can read this tutorial. If the screen resolution of your computer is high enough, the More (...) button won’t appear. Instead, the “Format options” button will appear directly on the toolbar.

• Let’s continue with the buttons. As we have three options, we are going to name them A, B and C. Click on each circle and type directly into the shape.
• Change the font and size of the letters in the Font and Font size menus in the toolbar. Voilà!

Once that the multiple-question slide is ready, we need to create two more slides: one that indicates that the answer that your audience has marked is correct and the other telling the opposite thing. Here we are going to show you how to design the “Right Answer” slide. 

• Go to the toolbar. Select Insert → New Slide or simply. You need to create the new slide just after the “question” one, so be sure that you are there when you add a new one.
• It’s time for you to design the contents and layout. Choose the colors and fonts of the theme.
• It’s important for your students that you encourage them. Add symbols as a check mark and a message of the type “Correct!”, “Well done!”, “Yes!”, “You’ve made it” and the like.
• The “right answer” slide is ready!

You need to add a new slide for those cases in which your student gives a wrong answer. The process is quite similar to the one above. 

• Add and format a new slide. If you want to learn more about how to add, duplicate, move delete or hide slides, you can read this tutorial.
• In this case, you could add a symbol that represents that the answer is not correct, such as “X”. Add a message that lets your audience know that the response is incorrect, encouraging them: “Try again”, “Oops!”. It needs to be simple and understandable.
• Make sure that you add a button to redirect the student to the “question slide.” You can add a text such as “Try again” or something similar.
• To create the button, add a shape (as in the previous section) and apply different colors and effects.

The main parts of this interactive quiz are ready. Now what we need to do is link the slides. Let’s see how to do it, although you can learn everything about how to add links, you can read How to Add Hyperlinks in Google Slides. 

• Go to the answer slide. and add a link to each button.
• In our example, the first button/option is an incorrect answer. It should direct to the “wrong answer” slide.
• Click twice on the button and select the text that appears.
• You have two options: go to the toolbar and select Insert link or either right click on the text and select Link.
• As we need to link this slide to another within the same presentation, select the option Slides in this presentation.
• Remember that this corresponds to the incorrect option. Add the link to the “wrong answer.”
• Click Apply.
• If you don’t like it, remove the underlined effect in your text.
• Great! You have added the first link. Option b is wrong as well, so we need to repeat the same steps.
• Now let’s link option C to the “correct answer” slide! The steps are pretty much the same as in the two previous instances, but we’ll select the link of the “correct answer” slide.
• Hence: double click and select the text of the button.
• Go to the toolbar and select Insert link or either right click on the text and select Link.
• Select the option Slides in this presentation.
• Choose the “correct answer” slide.
• Remove the underlined effect if needed.
• Brilliant! You have linked the three options successfully. But we need to link the “wrong answer” slide to the “question slide”. Why? If your students provide an incorrect answer, the slides will redirect the child to the answer once again until he or she gets it right.
• Go then to the “wrong answer” slide. Remember that you created a button reading “Try again”.
• Select that button and select Insert link → Slides in this presentation.
• Choose the “question” slide.
• Your interactive quiz is ready!
• If you liked the presentation that we have used for this tutorial, you can find #StayAtHome Games and other free education templates for Google Slides and PowerPoint on Slidesgo. Download it for free! It’s 100% editable and customizable.

The 6 Best Live Polling Tools to Engage your Audience

The best way to engage your group in a live meeting or event (while not wasting valuable time) is to make it interactive — let your people participate. Live polling is one way to do this, and is proven to increase audience engagement. Here are the 6 best tools online to ask poll questions / run interactive polls, whether you're on a video call, in person in a meeting, or in front of an audience in a conference room.

See our video with reviews and screengrabs of each tool, or get to the written list below.

1. Slides with Friends

Slides With Friends is a great all-around interactive presentation solution, and is one of the frontrunners in our list of audience polling tools. It comes with pretty much everything you'd need to create and run live polls, then collect instant feedback. Players join on their mobile device with a QR code scan or custom URL (so, no downloads needed), and easily send in answers, emoji, sounds, and more, during your event or meetings real time.

Biggest Slides With Friends advantages: Accessibility, Thoughtful pre-made templates, Good design, Robust free account

This tool works wherever you can share your screen, so you can use it on Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Webex, or in a conference room.

It also comes with tons of free and ready-to-use game templates: think of them like Kahoot decks or Jackbox games that you can edit any way you like, and then play with your group. This takes away a lot of the work you’d have to do to create your own content from scratch. Just pick a template that meets your needs and play during your online meetings!

For instance, here's a "Poll the Audience" Template you can use (it's free with up to 10 players). You can edit the questions on each slide to ask your group exactly what you want.

Biggest Disadvantage: Downloadable CSV for event results only available on upgraded accounts

The ability to analyze complex data in relation to the polls taken during repeated training sessions or seminars can be enlightening and help you improve your presentation for future events.

Sli.do is one of the more basic slideshow presentation platforms with polling for your audience. It allows for brainstorming with a word cloud or Q&A as well, but little else. This platform offers a very basic free option, as well as three other annually billed subscription levels to meet the needs of small to medium-large companies or non-profits. The Enterprise package is particularly impressive (but comes with a hefty price tag).

Biggest advantage: Comprehensive analytics tools

Sli.do is particularly helpful for larger organizations with frequent training and team building due to unparalleled comprehensive analytics tools. You can review Q&As, which participants led the group in responding, see all of your polls at a glance, and easily create infographics from multiple choice questions.

‍ Biggest disadvantage: Limited interesting or connective uses

Sli.do can be a dry and survey-only forward tool. If you want to wow your audience, or seem like you put a ton of work (when you really didn’t) into an interactive presentation, this tool is a little lacking.

3. Poll Everywhere

Poll Everywhere is an interactive application that can be implemented almost anywhere, anytime. For instance this is the only platform here that integrates with Slack on this list.

This service is designed to scale up as you grow your audience. It offers the most subscription options starting at low fees for small meetings and reaching up to a $12,000 per year Enterprise plan. The Teams and Enterprise options are on the expensive side, although they are feature rich.

The biggest advantage: Best free and start-up packages for live polls

The free version gives you more features than others listed, starting with a 25-attendee roster (compared to 7 to 10 participants with other apps). It also lets you add polls and unlimited real time questions.

If you have a single meeting or seminar, a cheaper one-time live polling and presentation plan rich with more poll features is available.

The biggest disadvantage: Free and “Present” live polling options very limited in features

None of the free live polling tools include analytics or moderation capabilities, but Poll Everywhere's lower-level paid version doesn't offer them either. You must pay for the more expensive “Engage” option for these features, regardless of the size of your business and the frequency of your events.

4. Aha Slides

Aha Slides is one of the most affordable live polling services, and they offer a lot of perks that aren’t available with more expensive options.

The free version is the most limiting of the services listed here, but the features of the Essential and Plus plans are affordable options for freelancers and solo entrepreneurs running a small meeting. You can pay one-time, or you can subscribe for holding regular online or in-person events.

Even large companies can take advantage of this affordability when detailed analytics and sharing is not necessary, with the upper level service accepting up to 10,000 attendees.

The biggest advantage: Idea sharing and other interactive features

In addition to live polls and brainstorming word clouds, Aha also offers sliding scales, idea sharing, multiple choice, and even a spinner wheel for a variety of attendee participation that encompasses all types of learners.

The biggest disadvantage: Only basic analytics and presentation options

Aha Slides is one of the easier live polling platform to learn and use to create, but that simplicity means that you don’t have a lot of the same advanced features offered by other polling tools listed here.

5. Mentimeter

Mentimeter issuper-featured and filled with lots of options. This makes it powerful, but also kind of tough to figure out / get an immediate understanding of. It's also a bit pricier than others given all of its integrations and features.

The biggest advantage: Language accessibility for a global workplace

Mentimeter has a tool that allows for multiple translations within the same live presentation. This means that you can reach anyone in the world and still get the same audience participation that you receive in your hometown.

The biggest disadvantage: No automatically generated reports

While you can export data from your surveys, Q&As, and live polls, Mentimeter differs from other services in that you can export raw info, but the platform doesn’t generate reports for you. This makes the analytics information less helpful.

Vevox is one of the more expensive tools that includes live polling and other interactive features to keep your participants engaged. Unlike the other tools here, you can gather all types of anonymous feedback and surveys to help you improve future presentations.

Vevox is unique in that it doesn’t have different service levels. Although a free option is available to get you started, the paid version is the same for everyone. An individual plan is $50 per month, with the Enterprise plan giving you a $5 discount per user.

The biggest advantage: Most comprehensive free version

Vevox offers one of the best free versions, although it is only available for use with PowerPoint and Microsoft Teams. it allows an astounding 500 participants, and the only features excluded in the free subscription are analytics and reporting.

The biggest disadvantage: Works best with Microsoft products

While you can use Vevox’s polling applications in other environments, it was really designed for use with Microsoft products, including Windows, PowerPoint, and Ms Teams. Those integrations are seamless, but using the service with other platforms may be more complicated.

Real Time Polling Can Increase Audience Enjoyment

Experts agree that active participation increases the enjoyment of your audience and retention of your information.

"Incorporating the right type of online real-time polling ... has overriding benefits." Journal of Research in Innovative Teaching & Learning, "Real-time polling to help corral university-learners' wandering minds"

Regardless of what platform you choose, there is no doubt that live polling is a useful tool to keep an audience engaged. Like several of these options, your remote participants often do not need to download an app to see your screen on their phone or tablet, which makes this a very easy way to collect information.

Collecting data about particular attendees, including their responses to particular questions, is especially useful for training programs in which you need to measure performance and knowledge. At the same time, anonymous feedback is vital and not offered by all packages. Consider carefully how you will use the live poll tools to help you determine which is best for you.

The Best Choice for Live Polling

Our choice for the best live polling tool is Slides With Friends . It's got great live polling options and is easy to get started with and use, you can even use it for free with up to 10 players.

Some things you can do using SlidesWith:

• Poll your audience with different options to display rating poll results like graphs, donut charts, per-responder (run multiple polls, add images, get real time results)
• Play trivia or quiz your audience
• Create a live word cloud together (your audience sends in words and then votes to make words bigger)
• Everyone votes on responses from other audience members (like Apples to Apples or Cards Against Humanity)
• Live Photo share (Add images and display to the group)

PowerPoint Quiz Templates - 10 free Quiz Designs

08.20.20   •  #powerpoint #interaction #game.

If you want to boost your audience engagement, lighten the mood, or test how attentive your listeners are, quizzes are a great way to do so! Making a quick question layout is very easy (as you'll see in this blogpost), however it can be tedious to get the design to look good. So if you a) don't have time b) don't feel like doing a template yourself or c) just want to impress the audience with some nice looking quiz designs that you might not have thought of creating yourself, we got you covered.

We created 10 exclusive designs that you can download and use - 100% free - both for commercial use e.g. your next presentation and for private use (how about a trivia night?!) Just look through our list and get the one you like most - we got something for every taste! And by the way, if you need inspiration for quiz question ideas, be sure to check out our article on 50 Quiz Ideas for your Presentation !

• Galaxy Quiz
• Basic Black and White Quiz
• Kahoot Quiz
• Summer Beach Style Quiz
• Keyboard Style Yes-No-Quiz
• Personality Quiz
• Picture Quiz
• Minimalist Quiz
• Vocabulary Quiz
• Who wants to be a Millionaire Quiz

#1 - Galaxy Quiz

Have you ever had a question that only the stars could possibly answer? Now you can ask it with our beautiful galaxy / universe quiz design. This quiz template is the perfect way to go for all the people who adore some extravagant designs - you'll definitely wow your audience! The only downside is that your quiz participants might be so mesmerized by the galactic infinity that they may actually forget to vote for the right answer.

#2 - Basic True and False Quiz (Black & White Style)

This template is pretty plain and basic, yet far from boring! The contrast between black and white and the diagonal text elements make it the perfect elegant choice for anyone who's looking for an interesting and timeless classic design. It even comes in three different options. You can either decide for one or use all three in one quiz-session. We got you covered with one simple white, one black, and one half black- half white design for anybody who can't decide which one they like better. You can use this template for all kinds of questions that have two possible answers (so it is perfect for Yes/No or True/False quizzes!)

#3 - Kahoot PowerPoint Template

Unfortunately, there is no way to conduct a Kahoot quiz via PowerPoint. Until now! We built this wonderful template that looks exactly like the design of our favorite online- quiz- game. But now you can easily play it in your presentation without having to open the browser. And don't worry, participating via smartphone is still absolutely possible and easier than ever by using the SlideLizard Quiz Creator Plugin . Similar to Kahoot it lets you conduct fun audience quizzes, but embedded directly within your PowerPoint presentation!

#4 - Summer Beach Style Quiz

Get some instant holiday vibes without leaving the country, or even the house! Inspired by our tropical island PowerPoint template (which you can get right here !), we designed a wonderful new quiz template that will give you and your audience the feeling of being on vacation while you're actually in a meeting, lecture, or elsewhere. So it is basically everything you could ever want in a quiz. There are even two background styles that you can choose between!

#5 - Keyboard Style Yes/No Quiz

Without a doubt, our keyboard style Yes/No Quiz is one of the most creative ones! It is really fun and an amazing option for anyone who's looking to switch things up a little. The best thing? It comes with an esc- option! So if your quiz participants really, really don't know the answer, they can just - well - escape instead! The slides with the Escape- options are optional however, so if you'd rather want your audience to vote either Yes or No, you can leave out the esc- key. It doesn't matter, weather you're only asking if the audience needs a bathroom break or hard- to- answer trivia questions, with this template you're always in style!

#6 - Personality Quiz

Until now you probably thought more about doing trivia questions in your presentations, but did you know that personality quiz questions can also be an amazing engagement- enhancing element during any presentation? They are especially great as ice breaker questions , but could also be used as mood- lightener at any point. And the best thing: If you get SlideLizard, you can even see the audience results, so you have a statistic overview of e.g. people's favorite ice cream flavors (or whatever else you've always wanted to ask!) P.S: You could also use all the other templates in this post as personality quizzes, but this one is specifically designed as such.

#7 - Picture Quiz

If pictures speak to you more than words do, our picture quiz template might be the one for you! It comes with a fun, modern and playful design, and the pictures can of course be changed to whatever you want them to be (you can also add or remove new images, so there is a selection of 2, 3 or 6 pictures). The picture quiz can be used for testing vocabulary (although #9 covers that already), or to spice up your trivia questions. You could even use it as a fun way to introduce yourself to the audience (e.g. "Which of these baby photos is me?") in order to break the ice. Tip: If you want to know more about ice breaker questions, check out our blog post here .

#8 - Minimalist Quiz

Minimalism is extremely popular right now, and we totally get why! This is the simplest out of all the templates, but isn't it beautiful? With this quiz template, you get slides for Multiple Choice AND True/False questions! We are in love with this template in all its simplicity, but if you want, you could definitely use this as a blank canvas and upgrade it by adding pictures, backgrounds, new fonts or your favourite colors. The sky is the limit!

#9 - Vocabulary Quiz

This one is different from all the other quizzes, since it is neither multiple nor single choice, but instead somewhat of a memory game. We recommend this animated PowerPoint quiz template for testing new vocabulary or difficult terminology, but you could also adapt it and make it a regular open question format by writing questions instead of words on the cards and the right answers on the green cards below (it sounds more difficult than it actually is, and when you download the template, you'll get a detailed guide on how to use it.) In this format, there are some boxes with words in English (which you can exchange with your own words, obviously). By clicking on those boxes in presentation mode, they disappear and leave a green answer card. You can easily play this with your audience/students by letting them shout out the translation of a certain word and then clicking on the matching box to see if the translation is correct.

#10 - Exclusive Who Wants to be a Millionaire Quiz Template

Last but certainly not least, is our "Who wants to be a Millionaire" Template, which we created exclusively for you to feel like a real game show contestant! The whole template is pretty extensive, which is why we put it in a blog article on its own. Be sure to check it out right here in order to learn how to get the best experience possible out of the game - you'll also find the Download link there. The template comes with everything you could wish for - sound effects, a design that is stunningly similar to the real one, and even the possibility to participate via smartphone! The video below gives you a short demonstration of how the game looks.

Let your audience participate with their smartphone

Once you have chosen a quiz, you have to ask yourself: How do I conduct it during my presentation? Of course, you could just let your audience raise their hands for the answers of their choice - but that seems outdated and overly complicated (counting the amount of votes for each answers,...). The way more convenient option is to use an application like SlideLizard, which allows your audience to vote for the answer of their choice via their mobile devices, making the experience a whole lot better - quiz competitions have never been better!

The process is easy:

• Get SlideLizard for free by clicking here .
• Connect your presentation with SlideLizard. If you need more details on how to do that, please watch this short video tutorial .
• The Slides are already programmed to fill in your questions and Answers into the slots. We recommend to start by creating all the quiz questions you want to ask your audience.
• Then, duplicate the question slide as often as you need (= same number of questions you created). It is also a good idea to insert an answer slide after every question.
• You only need to assign the questions to the slides , and you're good to go!

Watch our video to get detailed instructions on how to connect your quiz with SlideLizard:

Adapt the templates

If you'd like to use one of our templates, but feel like making some adjustments, you can easily do that yourself. All of the given templates can be modified, you can make a two- answer quiz in a multiple choice one and vice versa, you can change colors, fonts and shapes to fit your personal taste or company branding. In the following quick guide, you will be shown how certain elements can be transformed. We're using our galaxy template as an example, but all the templates are transformable in the same or very similar ways.

So here's our downloaded template:

Now, let's start by changing the background first. Click anywhere on a slide and select "Format Background"...

Then go to "Picture or texture fill" (or Solid Fill if you want the background to be a plain color).

After clicking "Insert" your file explorer will open. Select the picture of your choice and click "Insert" once again. Your backround is now changed.

The existing boxes should be rectangular, don't you think? Let's do that by deleting the existing boxes and exchanging them with new ones. To do so, click on a box, then right click > "Cut" (or hit the backspace key). Then go to the insert tab and click "Shapes", where you can choose the shape of your choice and draw it on the slide. Place it where you want.

If the object you just drew hides the text, just go to the "Shape Format" Tab and then click "Send backward" until the text shows again.

And while we're at it, maybe just remove two answer options and make it a True/False quiz? If you want to, you can also change the font, and we're good to go! You just modified our quiz and made a whole new one that has your own personal handwriting!
