1 Use a dedicated app or platform

One of the easiest ways to create live polls and Q&A sessions is to use a dedicated app or platform that allows you to create and share questions, collect and display responses, and moderate and answer queries. Some examples of such apps or platforms are Slido, Mentimeter, Kahoot, and Poll Everywhere. These tools usually have features that allow you to customize your polls and Q&A sessions, such as adding images, videos, timers, word clouds, quizzes, and more. You can also integrate them with other platforms, such as Zoom, PowerPoint, or Google Slides, to make your presentation seamless and smooth.

I'm a big advocate for Mentimeter, a free, real-time tool that enables guests to provide concise answers. The embedded Zoom poll is another efficient way to engage participants swiftly. Additionally, I start presentations with an icebreaker like "Where's everyone dialing in from?" to create a comfortable atmosphere and encourage audience engagement right from the start.

Mentimeter, Kahoot and Poll Everywhere are the easiest tools anyone can use. And they are also usually very comfrotable for the audience, especially those who would not usually raise questions. They allow you to incorporate the audience into a presentation or a speech.

2 Use social media or messaging apps

Another way to create live polls and Q&A sessions is to use social media or messaging apps that your audience is familiar with and can easily access. For example, you can use Twitter, Facebook, Instagram, WhatsApp, or Telegram to create and share polls and Q&A sessions. You can also use hashtags, keywords, or group chats to organize and filter your questions and responses. However, using social media or messaging apps may require more coordination and moderation from you or your team, as you may need to monitor multiple channels, prevent spam or inappropriate comments, and ensure that your audience follows the instructions and rules.

This is good for webinars, especially if you want to use the opportunity to create/invite an audience into a social media group or chatroom that is used by a community you created or would feel would be useful for the audience.

3 Use QR codes or short links

A third way to create live polls and Q&A sessions is to use QR codes or short links that direct your audience to a web page or a form where they can participate. QR codes are scannable images that can be displayed on your slides, screen, or handouts, and can be scanned by your audience using their smartphones or tablets. Short links are shortened URLs that can be typed or copied by your audience using their devices. You can use QR codes or short links to create and share polls and Q&A sessions using tools like Google Forms, SurveyMonkey, Typeform, or Padlet. You can also use QR codes or short links to direct your audience to other resources, such as your website, social media accounts, or contact details.

This is a must; luckily, all popular live polling and quiz apps have such an option. It is very important that this type of participation is not difficult or time consuming for the audience and inclusive towards people with different levels of technological literacy.

4 Use voice or video inputs

A fourth way to create live polls and Q&A sessions is to use voice or video inputs that allow your audience to express their opinions or ask questions using their voices or faces. Voice or video inputs can add more variety and personality to your polls and Q&A sessions, as well as make them more accessible and inclusive for people who may have difficulties with text or visual inputs. Some examples of tools that allow you to create and share voice or video inputs are Flipgrid, VoxVote, VoiceThread, and Mentimeter. These tools usually have options that allow you to record, upload, play, and comment on voice or video inputs, as well as moderate and manage them.

5 Use gamification or incentives

A fifth way to create live polls and Q&A sessions is to use gamification or incentives that can motivate and reward your audience for participating. Gamification is the use of game elements, such as points, badges, levels, leaderboards, or challenges, to make your polls and Q&A sessions more fun and competitive. Incentives are the use of prizes, rewards, or recognition, such as vouchers, certificates, shout-outs, or feedback, to make your polls and Q&A sessions more appealing and valuable. You can use gamification or incentives to create and share polls and Q&A sessions using tools like Kahoot, Quizizz, Socrative, or ClassDojo. You can also use gamification or incentives to create and share polls and Q&A sessions using your own creativity and resources.
