Turn every course into a conversation with real-time interactive engagement
Wooclap brings live polls, word clouds, concept-check quizzes, and interactive video prompts directly into your Open edX courses. Whether you are running a live lecture or building self-paced content, Wooclap transforms passive consumption into active participation, and it works on any device without requiring learners to install anything.
The engagement is not a feature. It is the entire point.
Research consistently shows that active learning outperforms passive lecture consumption. But asking instructors to redesign their entire pedagogy overnight is unrealistic. Wooclap meets them where they are: take an existing lecture and add a poll after a key concept, embed a word cloud to surface misconceptions, or drop a quick quiz that adapts based on how well the class understood the material.
Interactive Features
Tools that make learning stick
Live Polls
Launch real-time polls during live sessions to gauge understanding, collect opinions, or make group decisions. Results appear instantly on screen, making the audience part of the presentation.
Word Clouds
Ask an open question and watch the answers form a visual word cloud in real time. Common responses grow larger. A quick, visual way to surface what a group is thinking.
Concept-Check Quizzes
Short, formative quizzes embedded at key moments in a lecture or course unit. Learners get immediate feedback, and instructors see aggregate results that highlight knowledge gaps.
Interactive Video Prompts
Embed questions, polls, or reflection prompts at specific timestamps in a video. The video pauses, the learner responds, and playback continues. Passive watching becomes active learning.
Brain-Ball Collaborative Tasks
Collaborative question formats where learners work together to solve problems. Designed for small group activities and peer-to-peer learning scenarios.
Any Device, No App
Learners participate from their phone, tablet, or laptop using just a browser. No app downloads, no account creation for participants. The barrier to participation is essentially zero.
