Creating Class Polls

These single question class polls can be used to draw interest to the next topic of study, poll class consensus, or a variety of other uses. For instance I posted a different course poll for each week. The information from the polls helps me make adjustments to the course content.

The following steps will assist you in adding polls to your own course.
