What it is

A slide that lets participants create a live-updating word cloud together in real-time. Participants see your prompt text, then enter a word or short phrase, and send it in. The slide displays the words as a cloud, and everyone is able to vote for words to make them larger.

These slides are best for open ended questions, brainstorming, and getting a general read of the feelings of a larger group.

This slide has two steps. Each step will display one by one as you advance the slide during your presentation.

Type in the text of your question or prompt. During a live event, joined participants will see on their device: the prompt text and a box to enter their own word.

To enter text, they tap where it says "type a word" and their keyboard will pop up. They can send up to 24 characters per submission. They can submit as many times as they like.

When you advance the slide, your wordcloud will now display (see gif at the top of the page). You players will see a list of words on their phones.

They can tap any word once, which will "vote" for that word, making it larger on the main display screen for all to see.
