What is ClickerUP:
- Goal in a short sentence:
A free and easy [Powerpoint + Google Forms] Audience Response System
- Details:
- A MS Powerpoint AddIn that connects to and shows updates of a Google Form poll to be show to a large audience
- Results of the poll allow audience to “communicate” with the speaker (AKA Audience Response System)
- The respondents use their own devices (example celular phone) to access internet
- In order to make this even easier for the audiences, QRCodes and shortened links are automatically produced
- Data is stored in an MS Excel File and the chart is embedded in MS Powerpoint (using OLE)
- Embedding MS Excel chart in MS Powerpoint means that format changes are kept during updates!
- “Live Update” start automatically upon entering presentation mode
- At this point the installer is an executable file
- The AddIn must be installed in the developer and in the presenter PC
- Financed by University of Porto as an Educational Project
