Question

Polling when presenters are the ones being polled (or how else to configure roles)

I am hosting a live Adobe Connect seminar that several hundred people will attend simply as viewers (forced mute/not participating in any way).  There will also be about 30 people who will be actively participating (allowed to speak during discussions, vote in polls, and control slides in some cases).  My thought was to make those people "Presenters", to avoid having to find each of them in a long attendee list whenever we need to give them elevated permissions.  That seems to work fine except for when using a poll pod.  In our case, we need the poll to be taken by (and only by) those "Presenters".  But by having the Presenter role, they are able to see the polling results as they come in (which we don't want) and have access to the buttons to control the poll.  Is there a workaround?  Or an alternative to making them Presenters (make them Participants but labeled or grouped in some way that they can be easily and quickly found in a long list of attendees)?

It sounds like your workflow would be best addressed using a custom built pod for polling.

 

I suppose that by using something like the EduGame Cloud pod in the Presenter Only Area you could meet this need with the peole who need to respond to the survey promoted to Presenters.
