Step 3 - Creating Multiple Choice Polls

At this point you should have an account on polleverywhere.com. If you are comfortable exploring on your own, go ahead and try to make a simple multiple choice poll. You should have a cell phone with texting capability handy so that you can test your new poll.

1. Go to polleverywhere.com. You may click on the words polleverywhere.com if necessary. 2. Click on the Login words in the top right corner. 3. Enter your email or username and your password. 4. You should be directed to the screen where you create polls. If you are not, click on Polls in the top right corner. 5. Click on Create New Poll in the upper left portion, just below the upper left corner. 6. Click on Multiple Choice Poll which is the poll on the left. 7. Click in the white rectangle under Question and type in any question you want to answer. I recommend a question with four answers. 8. Click in the first white box under Answers and type in a possible answer to the question. 9. Continue the process for the two additional boxes beneath Answers. 10. Click on the grey box that says Add An Option to create a fourth possible answer. Make sure one of the answers is correct! 11. You may adjust the settings in the upper-middle right of the screen. I recommend for now clicking on As Much As They Like so that you can test your Quiz multiple times. 12. Click on the green box that says Save New Poll. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 150%;">13. Click on the name of the poll that you just created. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 150%;">14. In the upper right corner, click on the grey box that says Start Poll. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 150%;">15. Test your poll. The number at the top center is the recipient of the poll - the person you are texting to. Whichever answer you wish to use, text that number as the message of your poll. <span style="font-family: 'Comic Sans MS',cursive; font-size: 150%;">16. Congratulations! You have created your first poll. Try multiple messages to make sure your poll is working.
