LX / Create and present your first Mentimeter presentation

Create and present your first Mentimeter presentation

Follow these steps to create and present your debut Mentimeter presentation and learn how to engage your audience.

Creating the presentation

Log into Mentimeter . In your dashboard, click on ‘+New presentation’. You will be prompted to enter a title for your presentation then click ‘Create presentation’. 

You can also create a new folder by clicking on ‘+New folder’ and organize your presentations by folders.

To notify your audience about Mentimeter privacy notice and terms of use you can copy ‘UTS User Documents’ template from the ‘Shared templates’ folder in your Mentimeter dashboard and make it available to your audience at the beginning of your presentation. When you click ‘Add to my presentation’ the shared ‘UTS User Documents’ will be copied into your ‘My presentations’ folder; then you can open it and copy to any of your presentations. Open your presentation to check if ‘UTS User Documents’ has been successfully copied. 

Before adding more contents, change the theme of your presentation from the ‘Theme’ menu by selecting ‘UTS Branding’ theme. 

Now you are ready to add content or questions on your presentation slides. To add any question, first select the question type from ‘Popular question types’ or ‘Advanced question’ menu under the ‘Type’ tab. After you select the question type you will be prompted to enter the content for the question under the ‘Content’ tab.  Depending on your selected question type several result display settings can be adjusted. Finally, you can adjust the behaviour for each slide in the ‘Customisation’ tab. 

You can use a combination of text, image or mathematical expressions for the question content.

There is no Undo or Save button – your presentation is automatically saved. 

To add another slide simply click on ‘+Add slide’ and you can add as many slides as you wish in your presentation. You can click and drag the slides to change the order of slides on the slide overview pane. 

Quiz Competition 

If you want to create a quiz competition, then choose between the ‘Select Answer’ or ‘Type Answer’ question types under the ‘Quiz Competition’ menu. The ‘Select Answer’ can be configured as multiple choice or multiple answer question by selecting how many answers are correct. The ‘Type Answer’ is essentially a fill-in-the-blank question type where you can set multiple correct answers.

Additionally, you will need to individually specify for each slide how much time is allowed to answer a question and whether correct answers that were given faster will be rewarded with more points. If accuracy is important over speed, then do not use this option as it creates a time pressure on students. 

You also have the option to add a ‘leaderboard’ after a quiz question so participants can see the highest scores of the quiz and there will be a sense of competition and fun. Mentimeter quiz can be used as a formative quiz as summative assessment tasks cannot be graded using Mentimeter.

Content slides

Mentimeter allows you to create content slides without any interactive elements which can be useful when you need to provide the context before asking questions. This way you will not need to leave your Mentimeter presentation to switch to another presentation platform.  

It is always important to familiarise yourself with the settings and content of your presentation before you present to avoid any surprising presentation behaviour during a live presentation. 

Make sure to review and adjust the presentation settings before you present. You can access the presentation settings by clicking on the ‘Settings’ button on the top right-hand corner. Here you can adjust settings for navigation, interaction, moderation and comments from audience for your presentation.

If you want to engage in discussion with your audience on each question,  use Presenter pace.  If you want to discuss at the end of a set of questions.  use Audience pace. Quiz is always presented in Presenter pace.

Share voting link and instructions 

Before you present, you will need to share the presentation with your audience to allow them to participate and interact with your presentation. To do this, click on Share and select the Participation tab to share a Mentimeter code, web link or QR code with your audience. 

When you present

• When you are ready to present, simply click on the “Present” button and your audience will be able to engage with your presentation/question/quiz by using one of the methods e.g. voting code, voting link or QR code. 
• Make sure to provide clear instructions and enough context before audience respond to your question or poll. You should allow sufficient time as everyone may not be able to complete the task at the same speed.

Fact Sheet on FTC’s Proposed Final Noncompete Rule

• Competition
• Office of Policy Planning
• Bureau of Competition

The following outline provides a high-level overview of the FTC’s proposed final rule :

• Specifically, the final rule provides that it is an unfair method of competition—and therefore a violation of Section 5 of the FTC Act—for employers to enter into noncompetes with workers after the effective date.
• Fewer than 1% of workers are estimated to be senior executives under the final rule.
• Specifically, the final rule defines the term “senior executive” to refer to workers earning more than $151,164 annually who are in a “policy-making position.”
• Reduced health care costs: $74-$194 billion in reduced spending on physician services over the next decade.
• New business formation: 2.7% increase in the rate of new firm formation, resulting in over 8,500 additional new businesses created each year.
• This reflects an estimated increase of about 3,000 to 5,000 new patents in the first year noncompetes are banned, rising to about 30,000-53,000 in the tenth year.
• This represents an estimated increase of 11-19% annually over a ten-year period.
• The average worker’s earnings will rise an estimated extra $524 per year. 

The Federal Trade Commission develops policy initiatives on issues that affect competition, consumers, and the U.S. economy. The FTC will never demand money, make threats, tell you to transfer money, or promise you a prize.
