Mentimeter.com is an interactive presentation and polling software that boosts the teaching and learning experiences, by allowing you to test knowledge, start discussions and give a voice to all students. Mentimeter is anonymous, easy to use and doesn’t require any download or installations – for yourself or for your students! 

With Mentimeter you can build interactive presentations with an easy-to-use online editor, directly from your browser. Add questions, polls, quizzes, slides, images, GIFs and more to your presentation to make them more engaging and fun. 

When you present, your students use their smartphones or laptops to connect to the presentations where they can answer questions, give feedback and much more. 

Their responses are visualized in real-time, creating a unique and interactive experience. 

• You can engage with all students simultaneously. Regardless of where they are located, how many they are or if they are a bit more shy or anxious - everyone's given a voice. Everyone's heard in an anonymous and safe way.
• You can present content and ask questions, hold various exercises with your students, seek feedback, brainstorm, prioritise, understand experiences, needs and emotions, etc.
• Anonymity draws out even the shyest students and makes the most hesitant people talk. Being able to interact anonymously makes students feel more inclined to participate and make their contributions more honest
• Mentimeter is suitable for both synchronous & asynchronous teaching. You can engage with your students during live sessions or send them Mentimeter surveys prior to, after a session or just to collect their feedback or get to know their existing knowledge better.
• It can be used as an evaluation tool, as it provides means for assessing the progress of learning before, during and after sessions.
• Mentimeter can also help you assess your own skills and improve your sessions and teaching approaches
• It gives great insights on how students feel or where and when they need help 
• Mentimeter will help you reach beyond attendance to meaningful presence and participation by breaking the static of “sitting there and listening”. 

Start your Mentimeter journey by completing the Beginner's Course of Mentimeter Academy. The course will help you learn how to create new presentations, how Mentimeter's various slide types work, and what your presentation will look like from your audience's point of view. Upon completion people will receive their very own Mentimeter Beginner's Certificate. The course takes about 30-45 minutes to complete.

• Use the Multiple Choice question type as an icebreaker, to get to know your students (or for them to get to know you!) or to get quick feedback on the existing knowledge or preferences of your students
• Release a Mentimeter asynchronous survey prior to a session to collect questions, expectations and to see where your students stand on a specific topic

• Use the WordCloud question type when a discussion can be based on keywords or to check how your students are doing

• Use Mentimeter for feedback with the Scales question type - ask your students to assess their learning experiences and rate their disagreement/agreement or disapproval/approval of various statements

• Use the Ranking question type to rank and prioritize the flow of a session, areas for improvement or those that you need to focus on more specifically
