Demographic Assignment
A demographic assignment question may have up to 10 answer choices. A demographic assignment question can also be
used to assign participants to teams for competitions.
Prerequisites
A new question list must be created or opened for editing. To open a question list for editing, select the Content tab, select a
question list and click Edit Question List on the Question List Overview screen.

Select a question from the question list.
2
Select Demographic Assignment from the Question Type drop-down menu.

Select the number of possible answer choices from the Choices drop-down menu.

Demographic Options

unchecked, the slide is no longer considered a Team Assignment slide.

Question Options
l
Bullet Format - The bullet format for the answer choices can be changed from the drop-down menu.
Polling Options
l
Show Results - When checked, the chart is displayed after polling is closed.
l
First Response Only - When checked, TurningPoint only accepts the first response sent by each participant.
l
Countdown Timer - A countdown timer provides participants with a visual cue that polling is about to close as it
counts down to zero. When the countdown expires, the countdown timer disappears and polling is automatically
closed.
l
Response Grid - A response grid displays participant names by default. As participants respond, the
corresponding box changes color. If polling with an auto list, it is recommended to change the response grid text
to Device ID Only. As participants respond, a Device ID appears in the box.
