All Vevox activities start with a session. A session is where one or more polls, surveys, Q&A boards and/or quizzes are grouped together for a specific class.

Create a Vevox session
Click on ‘Create Session’ in the top right-hand corner, name your session something intuitive e.g. BMS788-week1- quiz and click ‘Create’
This creates your session, now you can add an activity (poll, survey or Q & A) to the session, the default option is a poll. You can create another type of activity (Q & A announcement or survey) by using the left-hand menu.
👉 Tip: It is best to create a session for each quiz or survey and name it according to module code and week e.g. BMS788-week1-quiz. Each session automatically comes with a Q and A board.
For students to participate in any activity within a session, you need to start the session first
