Packback Questions: Responding to Discussion Polls

Updated on Sep 12, 2023

About

Your instructor can post a poll to gauge the results of a Packback Discussion. You will select your poll response and add more information about why you responded the way you did.

How to Respond to a Discussion Poll

1. Once your instructor posts a poll, you can find it in your discussion feed.

2. To respond to the poll, navigate to the Answer Poll button at the bottom.

3. You will now be in the Post a New Response Page with the option to respond to the Poll.

You will need to select your discussion poll choice, add your thesis of why you selected this choice, and you will then defend your response and cite your sources--just like you do in other Packback responses.
