Poll Questions

Polls are great when the answer to your question is subjective; when there is no answer better than the others.

Polls work well when you are trying to gauge where your audience stands on a certain question or topic. It also allows participants to see how their answer falls within the spectrum of the other participants. (or hide their results when the material is sensitive)

• Polls are multiple choice.

• No points for right answer as answers are subjective. No answer is better than the others.

• You can provide points for participating in the poll.

• Results can be shared amongst participants to see industry trends, community best practices, etc. You can choose to show or not show the results to participants. Showing results can reassure respondents that they are "not alone" in their attitudes or opinions.

Scoring

You can add points for participating and answering the question.
