Elevate your live voting polls by incorporating image-based questions, especially useful for interactive games. This guide will walk you through the process of creating an engaging game using Image-Based polls.
Creating Your Image-Based Poll
Accessing Your Dashboard:
Log in to your Sidekick Beta account and go to your dashboard.
Starting with a Title Slide:
Begin with your title slide for the game. You might already have this set up as your starting point.
Adding a New Slide:
Click to add a new slide where you'll create your image-based question.
Editing the Slide for Live Voting:
Edit the newly added slide. Add a live voting element to enable students to vote for the correct answer.
Enabling Image-Based Questions:
Use the 'Image-Based Question' toggle. This feature allows polls to feature an image for both the question and the answer, instead of a text-based format.
Uploading Images for Question and Answer:
Upload an image for your question (e.g., question number one) and another for the answer (e.g., answer number one).
Setting Up Answer Options:
Choose how many answer options you want to provide (e.g., two options). Designate the correct answer (e.g., option B).
Presenting Your Poll:
Return to your presentation and hit 'Present'. Drag your screen to the display and enter full-screen mode to show the game.
Using QR Code for Student Participation:
Click 'Show QR Code' to display a QR code for students to scan and join the poll. Once everyone's in, hide the QR code overlay.
Conducting the Poll:
Display the question slide. Students vote for their choice (e.g., A or B) and confirm their selection.
Revealing the Correct Answer:
After voting ends, click 'Reveal Correct Answer'. The correct answer (e.g., B) will be displayed. Students who chose correctly will see a green screen with 'Correct', and those who didn't will see a red screen with 'Sorry'.
Repeating for Multiple Rounds:
You can add multiple image-based questions in a sequence for an engaging and interactive experience.
