Live Voting
The StudOn tool "LiveVoting" can be integrated into your PowerPoint presentation.
"LiveVoting" offers the possibility to get direct feedback from the students of an event. The questions are shown via beamer and the students can vote on them in real time via smartphone or tablet (internet connection required). The direct benefit is obvious: via mobile devices, otherwise passive listeners surprisingly participate very actively in the teaching process, as their input is asked directly.
