"Enhancing Lecturer Engagement Strategies with Vevox"

5/5

What do you like best about Vevox?

As an Educational Technologist, I appreciate Vevox's user-friendly interface, which simplifies the process of training lecturers to incorporate interactive elements into their sessions. The platform's seamless integration with PowerPoint allows educators to embed polls and quizzes directly into their presentations, facilitating real-time student engagement. Additionally, Vevox's anonymous feedback feature encourages participation from all students, creating a more inclusive learning environment. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What do you dislike about Vevox?

Some lecturers have experienced a flickering cursor when using the Vevox PowerPoint add-in on Windows systems. This behaviour appears to be related to how Office 365 add-ins operate within the Windows environment and is not specific to Vevox. While this issue can be distracting, it doesn't affect the add-in's functionality. According to Vevox's support documentation, this is a known behaviour and does not impact the overall performance of the presentation. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

What problems is Vevox solving and how is that benefiting you?

Vevox addresses several challenges in educational settings, notably enhancing student engagement and providing real-time feedback. Its live polling and anonymous Q&A features encourage active participation, giving all students a voice, even in large lecture theatres. This inclusivity fosters a more interactive and responsive learning environment. Additionally, Vevox's integration with platforms like PowerPoint allows for seamless incorporation of interactive elements into presentations, making it easier to train lecturers and enrich their teaching methods. Overall, Vevox streamlines the process of engaging students, leading to more effective and dynamic educational experiences. Review collected by and hosted on G2.com.

Hi Patrick,

Thank you for your review! We're glad to hear that you find the user-friendly interface and seamless integration with PowerPoint beneficial for training lecturers and engaging students in real-time. It's fantastic to hear that using Vevox streamlines the process of engaging your students, and you've seen more effective and dynamic educational experiences as a result.

Thank you for your feedback regarding the flickering cursor. This is related to how the Office 365 operates, but we have recently implemented a change in our most recent product update which should help with this.

Many thanks,

Kristina - Communications Manager
