S5E1: The Poll Everywhere Chronicles: Lessons from the Lecture Hall, Part I

ON Cultivating Student Engagement in Higher Ed

In this first season's episode, we dive into a two-part series exploring the transformative journey of Poll Everywhere at the University of Delaware. Since the onset of the pandemic, this multimodal tool has become an integral part of the university's pedagogical toolkit. Poll Everywhere has the ability to gather instantaneous feedback from students, even in large lecture settings, through various interactive features. You'll learn that this isn't just about technology—but about fostering inclusion, promoting engagement, and visualizing learning in real-time.

In this series, we'll go beyond the basics. Hear firsthand accounts from esteemed faculty members who've seamlessly integrated Poll Everywhere into their large lecture classes. They'll share the highs, the lows, and the game-changing strategies they've discovered along the way.
