Open your presentation with one question: what does the room expect?
Ask your audience what they hope to take away, before the first slide. They answer from their phone in a line or two. At the end, each one says whether it was met, and it all lands in your report.

How do I collect my audience's expectations before a presentation?
With Diaposi, upload your deck and answer yes to Start with participant expectations. Keep the suggested question, What do you expect to learn from this session, or write your own. When the session opens, the question fills the big screen beside the QR code: participants join and answer in one or two lines, and you see how many have answered. Nobody reads anyone else's words while they write. At the end, the answers come back on the closing wall, and each participant rates their own: met, partially or not yet.
How to open with a question, in three steps
Say yes at setup
After your upload, choose Yes, ask participants, then keep the suggested question or write your own.
Let the room answer
The question opens your session on the big screen, beside the QR code. Each participant writes one or two lines from their phone.
Close the loop
At the end, the answers come back on the wall, and each participant rates their own: met, partially or not yet.
Before the first slide: what the room expects
One question, yours or the suggested one
Diaposi suggests What do you expect to learn from this session. Keep it or write your own at setup, and change it live if the room calls for another.
One or two lines, from a phone
Participants scan the QR code and the question is on their screen. Each one writes up to 200 characters and sends it, with no app and no account.
They see how many answered, never the words
Once sent, a participant keeps their own answer, can edit it, and sees how many have answered. Nobody reads anyone else's words: people write honestly when the room is not reading over their shoulder.
At the end: was it met?
The answers come back on the closing wall
When you end a session that opened with the question, the room's answers return on the big screen as coloured cards. An answer several people gave shows once, with how many gave it.
Each participant rates their own expectation
Met, Partially or Not yet: one press on their own card, from their phone. The ratings appear on the wall as they are given.
Kept in your session's report
The expectations and their ratings stay with the session, in its report, beside the polls, the quizzes and the Q&A.

Frequently asked questions
What is an opening question in a presentation?
A question you ask the room before the first slide, to learn what people expect. With Diaposi, participants answer from their phone in one or two lines, and you see how many have answered before you start.
Can I write my own opening question?
Yes. Diaposi suggests What do you expect to learn from this session. Keep it or write your own at setup, and change it live during the opening.
Can participants see each other's answers?
Not while they write: they see only how many have answered. The answers come back at the end, on the closing wall, when everyone rates their own.
How long can an answer be?
Up to 200 characters: one or two lines. A participant can edit their answer until you start the presentation.
What happens to the answers at the end?
When you end the session, the answers return on the closing wall. Each participant rates their own expectation as met, partially met or not yet, and the ratings show on the wall as they come in.
Where do I find the expectations after the session?
In the session's report, with their ratings, beside the polls, the quizzes and the Q&A.
Do participants need an account or an app?
No. They scan the QR code or type the 8-digit code in a browser, on a phone, a tablet or a laptop.

Yes. At setup, choose No, skip this, and the session opens straight on your slides.
