Q. Is Vevox integrated with Oxford Single Signon?

A. Not yet. Please request a Vevox account by emailing remote@ctl.ox.ac.uk or, if you are in the Medical Sciences Division: msdlt@medsci.ox.ac.uk. All you need to provide is your email address.

You will then receive an email from hello@vevox.com, with a link to complete the sign-up procedure and verify your email address.
Please do NOT try to set up an account via the Vevox website.

Q. Is Vevox integrated with Canvas?

A. Yes, tutors can enable the Vevox app within a Canvas course (via Settings), and use it for asynchronous polls. This will provide a 'gateway' to both your Vevox dashboard (to create and manage polls), and the polls tool to launch a poll. See our Vevox guidance page for more information.

Q. Is Vevox integrated with MS Teams?

A. Yes. Vevox can be added to a MS Teams channel for interaction and immediate feedback. First you need to go to your Vevox dashboard (on vevox.com), log in with your account details and create your poll. For more information, refer to the page: Using Vevox with Microsoft Teams

Q. Does Vevox provide a plugin for Powerpoint?

A. For Windows, you can download and install the plugin for Microsoft PowerPoint, but this requires administrator rights to install software on your machine.

There is no planned development for a Vevox plug-in for Powerpoint (Keynote) on the Mac operating system. Vevox is working on the assumption that soon all Office tools will be accessed online via Microsoft Office 365, therefore making redundant the need to install different plug-ins on your machine.

There is a Mac plug-in in alternative web-based polling systems such as Participoll and Poll Everywhere, but these are not centrally supported by Oxford University. In particular, you should not share or ask for any personal data if using those polling tools.
