Mentimeter
Mentimeter is an interactive presentation platform that transforms presentations, meetings and lectures by turning passive audiences into engaged contributors.
From the Mentimeter website: "With Mentimeter you can build interactive presentations with an easy-to-use online editor, directly from your browser. Add questions, polls, quizzes, slides, images, gifs and more to your presentation to make them more engaging and fun. When you present, your audience uses their smartphones to connect to the presentation where they can answer questions, give feedback and much more. Their responses are visualized in real-time, creating a unique and interactive experience. Once your Mentimeter presentation is over, you can share and export your results for further analysis and even compare data over time to measure the progress of your audience and sessions."
Availability
Mentimeter is not licensed by the university for faculty, staff, and student use. For most users, a free account will meet basic polling and class interactivity needs. A pro license can be purchased that unlocks additional features including the ability to export and analyze results.
As an alternative, Microsoft has built a similar resource into Microsoft Forms that integrates seamlessly with Microsoft PowerPoint. In any Microsoft Form, you can click "Present" and a screen appears with a QR code that provides access to the form and simultaneously displays live results. The following resource guides you through creating a Present Live Form within PowerPoint: https://techcommunity.microsoft.com/blog/microsoft365insiderblog/get-live-feedback-during-powerpoint-presentations-with-microsoft-forms/4221241.
