Would you like to know more about using Mentimeter to add interactive elements to your teaching sessions? Mentimeter helps you to interact with your audience and share responses in real time. It can be used in both online teaching sessions or in the classroom, with participants easily participating using their own devices.

Ideas for using Mentimeter
- icebreaker activities
- increasing engagement
- checking knowledge and understanding
- consolidating learning
- gauging opinions and prompting debate
