Adding and Managing Poll Questions in SOLE

Polling questions can only be created and edited while a poll is in Draft Mode; once a poll is released, its questions are locked from further editing.

For a new poll, use the Add Questions button to add questions. After questions are added, the Manage Questions button will allow you to add or edit questions within the draft poll.

Managing Questions

• Manage Questions displays all questions within a poll. Each question is labeled as Multiple Choice or True/False, with those lacking a correct answer marked as "No Designated Correct Answer."

• Use the pencil and trashcan icons to edit or delete questions individually. To delete all questions, click Delete All Questions at the top of the page.

• Important: Live Polling does not include a question bank, so deleted questions cannot be re-added. Exercise caution when deleting questions.

Sharing Question Links

From the Manage Questions page, each question has a Share Question Link (clipboard icon) that can be copied. This link can be embedded in lecture content, such as PowerPoint slides, for quick access during live presentations. When clicked, the link automatically opens SOLE and asks the question for students. Note that if you are not logged in to SOLE, you will be prompted to do so.

Browser Compatibility

In Health Sciences classrooms, Internet Explorer (IE) is often set as the default browser. If you are signed into SOLE on a different browser, like Chrome, and release a question via a PowerPoint hyperlink, you may see a prompt to log into SOLE through IE. To avoid this, use IE when launching a poll from a hyperlink in lecture content.
