P6: Polling Practices for Increased Online Engagement and Student Learning Outcomes Dietrich von Biedenfeld: UHD Assistant Professor of General Business, Marketing, and Supply Chain Management Polling is an effective method of collecting statistics or other data on learners. With the appropriate wording, focused expectations, and flexible approaches, polling can become a valuable tool in our quest to reinforce information, increase retention of content, and break out of routine patterns of thinking and behavior. During this session, attendees will participate in two (2) polls during the presentation. The first poll offers an example of the survey and progress evaluation benefits of polling. The second poll will show some of the class discussion and collaboration benefits of the tool. Increasing online engagement, improving student learning outcomes, and the practical value of alternating interaction modes/methods to avoid brain fatigue are all benefits of using both polling styles.
