Audience Response System
In Spring 2022, ITS set out to reassess our integration of audience response systems within Canvas (to which the campus transitioned in Fall 2020). A leading vendor in this space is Poll Everywhere, which seamlessly engages audiences in traditional and virtual spaces workspaces through live online polling, surveys, Q&As, quizzes, word clouds, and more. The Canvas integration allows faculty to import student rosters, export student grades (for polls where points are earned), and create interactive presentations (via KeyNote, PowerPoint or Google Slides).
As of Fall 2024, SDSU has a site license to Poll Everywhere, and it can be used by faculty, staff, and students by signing in with their SDSUid at Polleverywhere.com. Faculty and staff will have the presenter role and can sync their roster for gradebook integration, host activities, take attendance, etc. Students will have the participant role and will be able to interact with Poll Everywhere activities.
