Ask topic questions in a collaborative platform to evaluate the class mood. Use the activity to break the ice, create class atmosphere and teacher/student points of contact, and to see if the concepts are being grasped.

Aim

Check that the lesson purpose is being achieved and concepts are being understood. Create “moments” in which the whole group is involved.

Note

(a) Answers are anonymous. The biggest challenge is to get everyone to participate.
(b) Put the questions/challenges in a few words, without making the sentences/requests too “childish”.
The free version of the app has limitations on the number of words and options.
