In my previous university we used a different quiz tool, and there was an option (off by default) that students login with their student accounts. The answers were still displayed anonymously, but afterwards the teacher could see who answered what. This option has great advantages: 1) Students tend to give very silly and sometimes even insulting answers to open questions because of anonymity. This ranges from attempts to be "funny" to downright sexual harassment of young female lecturers. In education settings, with 100+ 18-years old's in a class, getting trolled by anonymous students is a real risk, while `dishonest' answers are rarely a problem. 2) After the class with one click I could send to the students the questions and their individual answers. They liked this. 3) Participation was almost 100% with login, while without login by far not all students in the class even answered the questions. 4) I automatically had a list of participants. When a student asked for a recommendation letter, I could check how much effort they showed, whether they showed up etc. Now my new university uses Mentimeter, and I really miss this students' login option. Do you think you may consider adding such option to Mentimeter so that participants can login with their organization account if they are at the same organization as the presenter? Thank you for your consideration. I am open for a call if you wish to explain this further. Kind regards, Nelly Litvak, Eindhoven University of Technology, Netherlands.

I'm prep'ing for a lecture to 24 students with 12 local and 12 dialing in from a distance. An ability to call upon a person by name will allow me to seek clarity/discussion of a response from their respective point of view.

For academic use, it would be useful to identify who answered what in real time so that you can call on a student who replied in a certain way. I know that I can discover this after the fact in my excel download, but it would be great if you could click on a bar (in a multiple choice question, for instance) and it could display the names/ids of those that responded with that given answer.

For education, this is a crucial feature. Not just for behavioral reasons (which is really important for online educators) but also for tracking student performance (formative evaluation) and evaluating how students are learning.

I appreciate that anonymity allows more honest responses, but really could be an optional feature, i.e. turned on or off. We want to be able to see who said what in real time to move the conversation forward quickly.

Teachers need to be able to track participants. I love Mentimeter but it is not as helpful as other platforms that require usernames, thus providing individual results and participation evidence.

Not everything should remain anonymous
