Be patient: I kindly ask you to take a moment to allow students the opportunity to comfortably retrieve their phones, participate, and deeply give them time to reflect on the question questions you've posed. You can observe the gradual flow number of votes coming in on your monitor, located on the slide's bottom right corner.

Prepare your students: Consider adding a slide before each question slide that announces it, or include a line or image on the preceding slide that alerts students to get their devices ready.

Remind students of the ways to login: Please verbally share Share the room joining number displayed at the top of the slide verbally, and/or point to it for clarity. If using the QR code, give students ample time to access it.
