The feedback system “eduVote” offers the possibility of integrating questions to students into a course. The questions can be prepared or created spontaneously. The aim is to engage students by asking them content-related questions, comprehension questions or surveys to get them in the mood for a topic. Eduvote is very easy to use, can be integrated into existing PowerPoint presentations and is in use at over 20 universities across campus.
“eduVote” can be used university-wide for courses by all lecturers, staff and students at Jade University. Members of the university can register with eduVote using their university email address and use the system.
Surveys are conducted anonymously and without registration or IP storage of participants. The tool is therefore also GDPR-compliant. Survey creators can save questions and anonymous answers locally.
Create surveys
Use eduVote
Your university e-mail address serves as an ID so that students can take part in the exact survey. An additional session code as a password is optional. After registering, you will receive an e-mail with a password that you need to start and end surveys. Register once with your university e-mail address. This can be done both on the website and from within the program.
“eduVote” can be integrated into PowerPoint or started as an instant poll. Let your students know in the first course that you will be using “eduVote”.
