Questions from Audience: Participant Perspective

The Questions from Audience feature allows participants to ask questions during your presentation, helping you create a more interactive and engaging session. In Slidea, you can control how and when your audience can submit questions.

Enable Questions from Audience

To allow participants to ask questions:

1. Add a Q&A slide to your presentation
2. Go to the Edit tab on the right panel
3. Enter your prompt in the Question text box

Below this, you will find the Questions can be asked section. Here, choose how participants can submit questions:

• On all slides – Allows questions throughout the presentation
• Only on Q&A slide – Restricts questions to the Q&A slide

You can also enable the option Allow audience to see each other’s questions by clicking the box. This lets participants view questions submitted by others during the session.

Option 1: Questions on All Slides

When you select On all slides, participants can ask questions at any time during the presentation.

How it works (Audience view):

1. Participants will see an Ask a Question icon below the question on their screen
2. When they tap the icon, a text input box opens
3. They can type their question (up to 200 characters)
4. Click Submit to send the question

This allows continuous interaction without interrupting the flow of your presentation.

Option 2: Questions Only on Q&A Slide

When you select Only on Q&A slide, participants can submit questions only when you navigate to a dedicated Q&A slide.

How it works (Audience view):

1. On the Q&A slide, participants will directly see the Ask a Question text box
2. They can type their question (up to 200 characters)
3. Click Submit to send it

This option is ideal for structured sessions where you want to handle all questions at a specific time.

Use on all slides for ongoing engagement and quick feedback, or choose only on the Q&A slide for a more controlled and focused discussion.
