| Your session | With edauthor | What it makes possible |
|---|---|---|
| Presentations and media | Import PDF slides and combine them with images, video and live activities. | Keep your content and participation in the same session. |
| Live polls and word clouds | Use multiple choice, scales, rankings and word clouds to collect responses and show the results. | Hear from the room and make the responses part of the discussion. |
| Quizzes and knowledge checks | Run scored quizzes with a leaderboard, or use quick questions to check understanding. | Move naturally between a playful challenge and a focused learning check. |
| Audience questions and discussion | Use session chat for ongoing questions and Thought Bubbles for open responses. | Give participants a way to contribute throughout the session. |
| Built-in group work | Allocate participants into groups, guide smaller group spaces and bring contributions back to the room. | Turn individual answers into shared thinking and collaborative activity. |
| Reusable Activity Cards | Arrange content and interactions into Activity Cards and save bundles for another session. | Build once, adapt the sequence and use it again with a new class or team. |
| Simple participant access | Participants join by code, QR link or direct link in their browser, without creating an account. | Spend more time on the session and less time on setup. |
| Results and exports | Review session and Activity Card results. Export response data as CSV and visual results as PDF on paid plans. | Use the responses to plan follow-up teaching and share a visual debrief. |
| Scratch Card questions | Use scratch-to-reveal answer options with points, feedback and group participation. | Let teams discuss an answer before revealing feedback. |
