Wooclap is an external learning tool that allows you to actively engage with your students by setting up real time quizzes and activities that students can answer via their phones and devices. Activities can additionally be set up normally for student's to take in their own free-time.
Step 1: Go to the main page of the Moodle course that you would like to add Wooclap to.
Step 2: Click on the gear icon in the top right corner and select "Turn editing on":
Step 3: In whichever week you would like to add the Wooclap activity to, choose "Add an activity or resource":
Step 5: Name the activity how you would like, but it would be best to have a name related to Wooclap so your students know. Then for "Preconfigured tool", expand the drop down menu and choose "Wooclap". It should look similar to what's shown below:
Step 6: Your activity has now been added. All you have to do is click on the external tool from your course main page and it'll take you to the Wooclap activity:

To select one or more answers as correct, click on the check box next to one of the answers. An answer that is marked as correct will have a blue check mark next to it shown above. To add one or more questions click on the plus symbol right below the last listed answer.
Step 2: Once you are satisfied with your question click on "Save":
Feel free to add as many questions as you want and as many different varieties as you please.
Step 3: Once you are satisfied with the number of questions you have, select "Start" on the first question you created:
Whichever "Start" you select doesn't matter, but it might just be easiest to start with the first question. All questions will appear/be answered.
Step 4: In order to share to your students, please scroll through the pages with the side arrows until you get to the last page:
From there you can email your students the link to participate in the event, have it send them a SMS text, or they can scan the QR code.
Step 5: Once you have shared the link to your students, you must scroll back to the first question so they can participate. Once they have answered the first question, move on to the second, and so on and so forth. You can see their responses live.
Step 6: Once you are done with the event, go ahead and click "Exit" at the bottom and you will be taken back to your course page:

Note: The purpose of Wooclap is to be live and interactive. So before you start your presentation and enter full screen mode, we recommend that you start a live Zoom session with your class. With the Wooclap link, they will only see questions as they come up, they will not see the presentation. That's why we urge that you screenshare the presentation from Zoom so you can present the slides live, and when the question slides come up they can participate with those questions from the Wooclap link. If you need help setting up and starting with Zoom please click here for a quick video tutorial. Additionally, you can always create a ticket at our service catalog here or call us at (406)-496-4244.
