Launch PointSolutions Desktop and click PowerPoint Polling.
Click New from the PointSolutions tab ribbon to view menu of pre-defined slides. They are categorized by the type of question e.g. Multiple Choice, True and False, etc. For instance, select Multiple Choice. PointSolutions inserts a vertical slide that contains a question, answer, and a graph region.
Select the question region and type your question text.
Select the answer region and enter the answers. You can enter a maximum of ten answers per slide. (Click anywhere in the white margin space to pull up the bar graphs.)
Set the Answer Value under scoring options in slide preferences window. Select the correct option and PS will automatically label others as Incorrect.
Once you select the correct answer choice, you will notice that the color of the graph colors will change to red and green if the correct/incorrect color scheme has been set.
You can also assign Correct and Incorrect point value in the Slide Preferences window.
Repeat steps 1 to 7 to insert additional slides. When you are finished, save as you would any PowerPoint presentation.
NOTE 1: DO NOT copy this slide and reinsert it in your presentation. Each slide has a unique identifier to allow proper upload of gathered responses. Copying and pasting slides will cause the results to be inaccurate. NOTE 2: Once you have the basics in place, you can reorder slides, apply fonts and color schemes, shrink or expand the graphs, text, and images just as you would in PPT. Be sure to edit all question slides in PointSolutions only. The PointSolutions ribbon should be visible when editing slides.
