Running a Slide Show
Use the PowerPoint Slide Show functionality to run the polling presentation.
Prerequisites
To poll in PowerPoint, a presentation with polling slides or a question list is required. To track results based on participants, a
participant list is also required. For more information on creating a PowerPoint Polling presentation, see
Content on page 70.
1 Plug in the receiver or establish a ResponseWare session.
NOTE
For information on how to establish a ResponseWare session, see Setting Up ResponseWare
on page 13.
2 Open TurningPoint and select a participant list and a question list, or a PowerPoint presentation, if applicable.
3 Click PowerPoint Polling.
The TurningPoint Dashboard closes and PowerPoint opens. If using a question list, TurningPoint will automatically
parse the content into polling slides. This may take a few moments if there are a large number of questions in the
question list.
4 Open the PowerPoint presentation that contains the question slides if a question list has not been chosen.
5 Select the TurningPoint ribbon/toolbar.
6 Verify the correct participant list is loaded and Live Polling is selected in the Polling drop-down box.
7 Start the Slide Show.
8 Depending on the Polling Options selected during content creation, the slide may need to be advanced to open polling.
Press the spacebar, enter/return key or down arrow to advance the slide. If using a mouse, a mouse click also
advances the slide. Alternatively, a PresenterCard may be used to advance slides and control polling. For more
information on PresenterCard, see
Pairing a PresenterCard on page 16.
9 Continue until the Slide Show is finished.
