Overview

This introductory workshop will guide participants through the essentials of using Vevox, UWM’s supported student response and engagement system. We will begin by demonstrating how to log in using UWM’s Single Sign-On and how to create and manage a Vevox session. Participants will learn how to build common poll types (multiple choice, word cloud, rating, and open text) and how to use them to support active learning in class. The session will also cover how to install and use the Vevox PowerPoint add-in, enabling polls to run seamlessly during live presentations. Finally, we will walk through the Canvas integration, including how to sync sessions and enable grade passback so student responses can be recorded and transferred directly into the Canvas Gradebook.

By the end of the session, participants will be able to confidently create and run live polls in their course, integrate them smoothly into lectures, and link results with their Canvas courses.
