Four student engagement tools, one join code
👍 Yes/no quick poll
Ask "Is that clear?" or "Shall we move on?" out loud and the answer buttons appear on the students' screens. The count builds up on your panel as they tap; close the poll and the result shows to everyone.
⏱ Classroom timer
Start a countdown for a break or an exercise, with a label. The same clock runs on the board, on your screen and on every student's; when it hits zero, everyone sees it at the same moment.
🙂 Energy meter
Students mark how they feel during the lesson, anonymously, on a five-step scale. You see the class average and the trend over the hour, and you call a break when the energy starts to dip.
📋 Exit survey
Collect anonymous end-of-course feedback with the ready template (overall rating, pace, clarity, would recommend, two open questions) or your own questions. The results show on your panel; download them as CSV if you like.
When the lesson is over
At the end of the course, students download the slides and the files you attached from their own screen. No collecting e-mail addresses, no file dump in a group chat.
- The slides download as a PDF.
- Notes, sample files, code archives: whatever you attached to the lesson.
- You hold the download switch: keep it off during the lesson and open it when the course ends.
The survey and the energy meter are anonymous; the teacher sees only the totals. The details are in the privacy notice for students.
Replacing clickers? Together with the live quiz, these tools make ClassTogether a classroom response system that runs on the phones the students already carry. If you are weighing it against Mentimeter's polls, the comparison is dated and factual.
Frequently asked questions
Are survey answers anonymous?
The exit survey and the energy meter are anonymous; the teacher sees only the totals. In the quick poll and the quiz you can see who answered what, because they are part of the lesson.
Can I export the survey results?
Yes. Download the exit survey's results as a CSV file and open it in Excel or Google Sheets.
Do students have to open anything extra for these tools?
No. The student stays on the page they joined with the code; the poll, the timer, the energy meter and the survey appear on that page by themselves.
Can I run a poll without slides or a quiz?
Yes. The quick poll does not depend on a slide or a quiz: ask out loud, press the poll button, and the yes/no buttons appear on every student's screen. It is classroom polling for the moments you would otherwise ask for a show of hands.
