Polls are great to engage your attendees and keep them interested. Start a discussion by asking your attendees their opinion on something. Ask questions to see how well they understood what you presented. Or use reflective questions to help them retain what you presented. Attendees respond to your poll by selecting one of up to five responses. You decide how many choices attendees see.

Polls are a great way to engage your attendees and keep them interested. Let’s take a look.
To start a poll, open the Collaborate panel, select Share content, and then select Polling.
You can select either a multiple choice poll where you can provide up to five choices, or a yes/no poll where attendees will be presented with the option to answer yes or no.
With both poll types, you have to the option to type a poll question. Poll questions have a 110 character limit.
If using Multiple Choice, you can provide up to 5 answer choices, and each answer choice has a 90 character limit.
When you are ready to start your poll, select Start.
The poll overview gives you a response count for each choice, and shows how many attendees haven't responded yet. To see how each attendee responded, or who hasn't responded, go to the Attendees panel.
Select Show Responses to show the responses to all attendees. Attendees only see the overview count.
And finally, when you are finished, Select End polling to stop the poll.
