How to Conduct a Poll ?

[AbdulKhadar]

Hi everyone,
I’m looking to conduct a poll on Canvas LMS to gather opinions or feedback from my students. Could someone guide me on the best way to create a poll within Canvas? Is there a built-in feature for this, or would I need to use an external tool and integrate it with Canvas?

Any tips or best practices for managing polls effectively on Canvas would also be appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi @AbdulKhadar 

Many people use the built-in quiz function to conduct polls/surveys in their Canvas courses.  See the instructions a

I had a tutor ask me recently about creating polls, I suggested the ungraded survey option in the quizzes.

But, they where looking for some way to provide the results to the students just after they had taken the poll, solution was to use the free poll maker in Canva, https://www.canva.com/poll-maker/

Might be worth investigating.
