Demographic Question

A demographic assignment question may have up to 10 answer choices. A demographic assignment question can also be used to assign participants to teams for competitions.

4. Adjust the Demographic, Question, and Polling options as needed.

Demographic Options

• Demographic Grouping: Categorize the demographic options for easier reporting.
• Use in Competition: The answer options become teams and can be used in team competitions. When unchecked, the slide is no longer considered a Team Assignment slide.
• Save to Participant List: The competition information is saved to the current participant list.

Question Options

• Bullet Format: The bullet format for the answer choices can be changed from the drop-down menu.

Polling Options

• Show Results: When checked, the chart is displayed after polling is closed.
• First Response Only: When checked, PointSolutions only accepts the first response sent by each participant.
• Countdown Timer: A countdown timer provides participants with a visual cue that polling is about to close as it counts down to zero. When the countdown expires, the countdown timer disappears and polling is automatically closed.
• Response Grid: The response grid displays the participant name by default. As the participants respond, the corresponding box will change color. If polling with an auto list, it is recommended to change the response grid text to Device ID Only in the preferences. As the participants respond a Device ID will appear in the box.
