Poll Everywhere allows instructors to enable the Attendance Management feature, which provides attendance tracking of their students during the presentation. Students will need to check in for attendance before submitting responses. This article provides information on how to check in as a student, troubleshooting, and resources.
Check-in for attendance
Step 1: To start the check-in process with your instructor, access PollEv.com and sign in with your account.
Step 2: Next, access your instructor’s response page by pasting it into your web browser address bar or entering their username on the Home page. Note: the format is Pollev.com/username.
Step 3: Once you join your instructor’s session, you will be prompted to check in as shown in the image below.
Note: If you click the “Continue without check-in” button, you will be displayed the “We were unable to check you in” message shown below, and you will need to retry once in the designated location.
Step 4: After clicking the Check-in button, you should see the “You are currently checked-in to this presentation” message if you are located in the designated location set by your instructor.
Allow location for check-in
To ensure that you can check-in, you will want to enable location services on your web browser and device. This can be done by opening the settings in the web browser you are using, and enabling location services to “on”.
Troubleshooting
If you are outside of the range of your instructor’s designated locations, then you will see the message as shown below.
