Brightspace Content is Getting Upgraded
Beginning with the Fall 2027 semester, Brightspace courses will begin using the New Content Experience by default. Additionally, Instructors now have the ability to enable or disable the New Content Experience in their own courses ahead of the change in Fall 2027. For more information about this transition, see our New Content Experience Transition page.
Zoom has a polling tool that will allow you to launch a poll during a meeting. You will need to set up the poll ahead of time to do this, so please read through the instructions. You can launch multiple polls in one meeting. You are also able to pull data from poll results.
We suggest watching this short video to see how polls will look in your course, and a brief explanation of how they are created. Then read through our guide for more detailed instructions:
