Vevox
A licensed classroom polling tool for TU Dublin
Vevox is a new and licensed classroom polling tool available to all TU Dublin staff. It can be used in both the virtual classroom and in the face-to-face classroom.
Classroom polling is typically used to increase engagement, check on understanding and build a sense of community. And sometimes just to create some fun. Vevox allows you to put quick MCQs to your students, create word clouds, get instant qualitative and anonymous feedback and much more.
It is a flexible tool with 3 workflows:
- Vevox in Browser - Switch to a separate browser to run a Vevox session (suitable for virtual and face-to-face classroom)
- Vevox in PPT- Embed Vevox polls within your existing PPTs (suitable for virtual and face-to-face classroom)
- Vevox in Teams - Use directly within the Teams interface (suitable for virtual classroom only)
