Allow you to assign student names, but not show them in Live View
It would be helpful if you can assign the numbers to your class by name, but not have the names show in live preview (this is hard on kids who do not want others to know they got the answer wrong).

Hi Plickers Friends,
You’ve mentioned that you wanted the ability to hide students’ names in Live View.
We’ve added a button to hide the student response panel entirely and bring that back out when you want to review students’ answers (via the graph, etc). This is the button with the little arrow in a box next to the Full Screen button at the top of the Live View page. If you haven’t gotten a chance to check it out, please do so!
If you specifically wanted to show the card numbers’ response, but not the names, and still have the student response panel visible, please get the new idea rolling on the forum! We want to be sure to address your needs, but for now it seems that this “show/hide” student response button resolves most of the voters’ issues here.
Thanks!
Jenn

I'd like to use this app like how you use Polleverywhere. I usually project the question and responses on the overhead. When students respond with their answer choice a graph displays their anonymous responses. The students and I like to see how other students in the class respond to each question, but not necessarily see who responded to what.

Like RAW said you can show or not show answers. Also you can get rid of the whole response piece all together

As Matt B said, this is already possible: you only have to click on the Show Answers button when the answers are visible. What would be desirable and a lot more logical is for this button to be called Hide Answers when the answers are shown, and Show Answers only when the checkmarks are visible.

During live view, I only show the view that the student's score has been scanned, not if they actually got it right/wrong. Just a thought.
