TCDpolls, powered by Vevox, allows staff and students to have real-time engagement during their lectures or webinars, via the following features:

  • Polls
  • Short class surveys
  • Questions and Answers sessions

By default, Staff members have access to TCDpolls to create content.

As of February 2024, Staff members can also sponsor teaching assistants to allow them to use TCDpolls to create and run polls.

Staff members who would like their teaching assistants to be able to create and run polls, can apply for them to have “creator role access” to the service.

“Creator role access" would be granted to a teaching assistant for one academic year only. Staff members can reapply, on behalf of the teaching assistant, at the beginning of Michaelmas term for any subsequent year.

If you are interested in finding out more about how you can sponsor a teaching assistant to have “creator role access” to this service, check out our TCDpolls service page.
