Create a Form
Collect the opinions in real-time, so you can get an idea of what they think!
To create a Form, click on “Add a slide” on the top left of your session and select the activity “Form”.
When you choose the "Form" activity, the interface adapts instantly: a dedicated editing panel appears on the right of your screen, allowing you to customise your activity. At the same time, the system automatically saves your activity with the same name as the newly created activity (in this case, Form) and integrates it into your presentation, visible as a slide in the left-hand navigation bar.
Activity settings
You will have access to the next sections:
Title and Instructions
- Customise your Form activity! By default, the title is the same as the activity name. To change it, delete the automatic title and enter your own question or a customised title.
- Add an instruction to give more details about your activity. This option is optional.
Activity format and Propositions
By clicking on "Add a question" you have three different options:
Multiple choice or single choice question :
1. Choose between the two options
2. Ask your question or add the title
3. Make your question or statement mandatory
4. Add images to each suggestion, or delete suggestions using the red bin on the right.
5. Continue to add suggestions if necessary
It's the ideal way to ask your participants for their opinion on a number of proposals!
Open question:
1. Choose the type of question
2. Add your question or statement
3. Make your question or statement mandatory
This is the perfect option for asking for suggestions or an idea relating to the subject being presented, and which has not been given as a proposal on the multiple choice or single choice format!
Notation
1. Choose between the two options
2. Ask your question or add the title
3. Make your question or statement mandatory
4. Assign the number of stars between 3 and 6
Very useful if what you're looking for is quantifiable feedback on a subject or for your session!
And all formats can be answered anonymously if you wish.
Launch settings
To make your activity even more dynamic, you can choose to display a Stopwatch or a Timer (to determine the duration of your activity).
This Stopwatch will blur your propositions in order to make them unavailable for the participants, you can unblurred them for 5 seconds if needed by clicking on “Show temporarily”
Presentation settings and Results
- You can choose to display the number of participants live
- Choose how you would like the results of your activity to be displayed, either in real time (Live) or at the end of the activity.
Start your activity
In the participants' mode (asynchronous mode), your form is automatically available once your activity is saved. In the facilitators' mode, you can manually start your activity by clicking on the green button "Start" on the top right of your slide.
To end the activity so that your participants can no longer contribute, click on "Stop".
As the creator/facilitator of a session, you can choose to participate in the activity by clicking on the tab Take part at the top of the activity slide once this has started.
The options of the activity
You can perform the following actions on your activity at any time:
1. Reset
2. Edit
3. Duplicate
4. Delete
Some options of the Form activity are not editable anymore once the answers have been saved.
