Poll Everywhere is an audience response system that allows presenters to receive immediate feedback during the course of a presentation or lesson. However, it is important to make sure that Poll Everywhere is accessible for all learners. Two ways to improve accessibility in your Poll Everywhere polls can be found in the Features Lab in your settings tab. The Features Lab includes Pre-Release Features and Beta Features. In Pre-release features, it is important to enable to the image alt-text option. This will ensure that if you use images in your polls, you are asked to provide a description of the image to assist those who may use e-Readers. In the beta features, you want to turn on the PollEv QR codes. This will add your QR code to the title section of your polls which allows your presenters multiple ways to access your polls during the course of your presentation.
