Listen, I know none of you have time right now—what with the holidays right around the corner and all the shopping you have to do. But you know what? You deserve a break. So make yourself some hot cocoa (or perhaps something a little stronger), relax, get comfortable, and let me tell you about some new features before you go back to stressing about the holiday season. I’ll keep it brief. Promise.

Select Multiple Correct Answers for Multiple Choice Questions

Why should multiple-choice questions have multiple choices but only one right answer? Not cool, right? Well, from this point forward, multiple-choice questions can now have multiple correct answers. Test the full scope of participants’ understanding by allowing them to earn full points when all correct answers are selected, and then maybe, like, part marks, or something, if they select at least one correct answer. Lighten up, it’s the season of giving.

Take Polls on the Web or Mobile App With Automatic Blackboard Grade Book Sync

Previously, participants were required to log in to Blackboard to take polls and have their results synced to the Blackboard Grade Book. Now, their results are automatically synced to the Grade Book after completing polls through the YuJa Engage mobile app or website, thus eliminating the need to log in to Blackboard.

Poll Release Page with Centralized Configuration Settings

We’ve revamped the Poll Release page with a redesigned interface, new icons for improved navigation, and enhanced web responsiveness. Additionally, poll settings are now consolidated into the side panel, allowing you to view analytics, add questions, and adjust settings in a centralized panel.

And that’s it! Now get back out there and secure those gifts. Until next time, I hope you enjoy using the YuJa Engage Student Response System. For more exciting news and updates, subscribe to our newsletter, and stay tuned for more amazing new releases coming soon.
