Allow teachers to share questions with each other
My team of math teachers is all using Plickers this year. Is there a way we could share questions in our libraries with each other?

Include images as answer choices
The option to insert pictures into questions is great! What about a similar image option for answers? This would be FABULOUS!

More than 63 unique cards
I'd like to use Plickers with more than 63 students/respondents at once.
Example uses:
- Model the use of Plickers at large PD sessions (approx. 200 respondents)
- Large university classrooms (100+ respondents)Let us know in a comment how many you'd need!

Print questions
It would be great to have a way to print a hard copy of questions that we have used with plickers. This would allow our students to reveiw the questions on their own as well.

See results for more than one month
30 days is too short. We should be able to see the results of a whole term for one child/class.

Allow 5 answer choices instead of just 4
It would involve redesigning the cards, but I'd love to have 5 answer choices available. Many standardized tests (like the SAT) have 5 answer choices, and it would be nice to use Plickers to invigorate our SAT prep.
I've had a great experience so far using Plickers in my classroom. Thanks for making the app available!

Import questions from text file
I want to add questions through an import from a text file so I can use ones that I've previously created for other situations. If Plickers had a standard format for that text file we could take them from other sources like ExamView or Edmodo, tweak them into the right format and then upload them to Plickers.

Enter multiple questions in at one time
Upload a document (like a multiple choice quiz with 20 questions and their answer options) and the questions are automatically entered as 20 separate questions instead of hand typing every question in.

Push data to Google Docs
Hi Nolan! Please please please integrate your AMAZING!!! tool with Google docs (spreadsheet!) I think SO many people could really use your idea as a fundamental building block to interacting with others in amazing ways. I've been wanting a tool like this for the past decade but I'm not a programmer!
AWESOME work! Simple, clean, effective. Students at my school LUV this tool!
My students have published about 20 books and we're now doing more and more writing projects where the kinds conceptualize, draft and write their own books. The books are very cool and interesting. Something that always slows…

Hi all,
Today we released a big update to our reporting features that now allows you to generate reports for multiple questions and each of your classes. Along with this is the ability to export your class results to a spreadsheet (.csv). While we still don’t have an official “push to Google Docs” feature, with this spreadsheet export it should now be easy to copy/paste or import your results to a GDocs. We hope this goes a long way towards meeting your needs and you can read more about the release here: http://blog.plickers.com/introducing-plickers-scoresheet/ -
Put pictures into answers
I teach math and I would love to be able to add pictures to not only questions...but to answers as well! For example, when I teach graphing I would like to be able to insert pictures of graphs in the answers. Or when I teach geometry this would come in handy.

Mark a student absent
I would like to be able to mark a student absent, so I don't continually think they didn't respond. If possible, the fraction could represent the number of people present that day.
Example: I have 43 students enrolled in the class, 2 students are absent (which I would love to do via plickers - my first scan would be called attendance then if I could click their name and check a box or something to effectively eliminate them from the roster that day it would be amazing. I could do it differently if that is too difficult to program.) After…407 votes -
Shuffle Answers
Be able to shuffle answers to decrease cheating between classes. I currently have to make 3 versions of every quiz. Being able to just click a "shuffle" or "randomize" button would be SO much easier, faster, and would decrease the repeated clutter in my folders. Please please please!

Update to include sound files ?
I'm a music teacher, but I also ask you this question for language colleagues.
Would it be possible to do an update to include sound files ? (mp3 or other sound file)379 votes -
Allow webcam scanning
GradeCam has software that allows you to check scantrons using your webcam. I think Plickers is a phenomenal idea and it would be even more awesomer (deliberate use of horrible language) if kids could hold their cards up towards the camera as they walked out of the room. That way, teachers could post a one-question exit ticket on the board and collect data to the very last second of instruction.

Google Classroom
It would be great if you could integrate Plickers with Google Classroom. This would allow classes to be imported and results or questions to be inputted into the students grade for that assignment etc.

Import questions from 3rd-party sources
It would be great to be able to create the questions on the website as well as the app and to be able to import preexisting questions from other sources like USA Test Prep, etc.
*Note from Plickers: We'd love to hear more about the resources you'd like to import questions from -- this will better guide us in figuring out what content-providers we'd want to work with down the road to provide better content for you!

The ability to export questions
The ability to export questions would be very useful. Just as the scoresheet exportation is extremely useful. Possibly uploading questions could be something to think about aswell.
