Using the Real-Time Registration Tool
The Real-Time Registration tool provides a fast and simple way to utilize a participant list for smaller audiences (ideally less
than 50 participants). Registration only takes a few moments, thus eliminating the need for a permanent participant list. The
steps below can be performed before each presentation to ensure each participant has the appropriate response device.
A participant list that contains names or User IDs (Device IDs are optional) is required. For instructions on how to create a
participant list, see
Be sure to make any edits to the participant list prior to using the Real-Time Registration tool.
1
Select a participant list from the Participant List drop-down menu.
2
Click the Real-Time Registration icon on the TurningPoint toolbar.
The Real-Time Registration Tool opens.
3
Click the Play button to open registration.
4
Each participant must press a number on their response
device that corresponds with the number to the left of their
name or User ID.
The Device ID for the participant will appear in the Device
ID column.
If more than 10 participants are in the participant list, click
the forward or back buttons to scroll page by page to see
the remaining participants.
5
Click the Pause button to close registration once all of the
participants have responded.
6
Close the Real-Time Registration Tool.
The participant list is temporarily saved. If the session is
reset, or if PowerPoint is closed, the Device IDs are not
saved. For information on how to save the Device IDs, see
