Another poll

[mschwartz]

Here’s a poll with some discussion along with it. Unlike the first test poll, you can edit your votes later.

Please vote!

Where are the discussion lines; maybe I am missing that? Maybe add "Location" with several options and then blank line "Other" so member can enter another preference. If I can help you you with this, let me jniw: in my corporate consulting work, we built several simple survey tools - and also did listening work (executive intervires, focus groups, etc.). As Jay keeps saying, "listening" is one of the key tools to getting participants, cooperation - and results.

We should ask Judy to participate in the development of surveys and the prioritization of objectives (at least for the next several months).

That’s the discussion lines.

In the editor toolbar there’s a create poll button. It brings up a form where you can enter/ask a question and then you can add up to 20 possible answers. You can set the poll to close on a certain day and time. You can set the poll so people cannot go back and change their vote. You can set the poll so people can vote/choose multiple answers.

Any normal post text tools work to add details below the poll. The poll seems to always be shown first, which is consistent with how many implications of message boards work.

You can only have one poll per topic.

It is what it is. I think we can work with it.

If you want to print out more complex polls and hand out at the meetings, that works, too.

The poll in this thread is one I created from scratch. It is intended to show how the polls can look, a demo…

Yes, we can have answers like “Monday mornings “ and. “Monday afternoons.”

I can change the maximum number of answers a poll can have, if 20 isn’t enough.

An alternative is to ask poll questions using the post editing tools in a topic and people answer in the replies. You then manually go through the topic replies and count the results.

We have a couple of topics this style already. One for preferred meeting times and one for the suggested agenda for next meeting.

I do like the additional suggestions. Thanks for doing this.
