Enable the Poll Tool#
This section describes how to include polls in your course.
Overview#
You can include polls in your course to gather learners’ opinions on various questions.
For a poll, you configure one question and multiple possible answers. If you need to ask multiple questions, use the Survey Tool.
The following example poll has four possible answers to the question.
After learners submit their answers to the poll question, they see the poll results that have been gathered at this time, unless the poll has been configured to hide results.
Enable the Poll Tool#
Before you can add a poll to your course, you must enable the poll tool in Studio or OLX (open learning XML).
To enable the poll tool in Studio, you add the "poll" key to the Advanced
Module List on the Advanced Settings page. (Be sure to include the
quotation marks around the key value.) For more information, see
Enable Additional Exercises and Tools.
