The E-Voting activity module enables students to vote via their smartphone or their laptop and to have the results displayed on a graph in real time.
The E-Voting activity is ideal to capture the attention of wide groups. It increases interactions between "Professors-Students". Therefore, it supports a flipped class type of activity.
E-voting can be used in class to check knowledge at the end of a course or to animate theoretical presentations.
Usage
- As a teacher, on your course, turn editing on
- Add an activity or resource
- Select E-Voting
- Fill the form to create a new E-Voting poll
- On the E-Voting page, Click on the QR Code to show it bigger
- Your students in class shall have the option for seeing the vote panel to:
- scan this QR Code with a QR Code reader installed on their Smartphone
- access with URL above the QR Code
- click on the activity in the course page
- Click "Start button" to start the e-voting poll (you can select if you want time for voting or not)
- Only at this moment, your student can vote with Smartphone, laptop, ...
- When you want to stop the poll, click the "Stop button"

We apologize for this late response. We have changed the person responsible for plugin tracking.
The last update has been done on the "master" branch since the beginning of September 2020 : https://bitbucket.org/cyberlearn/evoting/src/master/js/
@Ekaggata, we understand your request and keep it in mind. This plugin has been thought to be used with a Moodle court and not independently. In this vision the questions and answers are displayed on the course while the reference of the answers allowing to vote are displayed on the different devices.
@Emmanual
Unfortunately we are not going in that direction. Our goal was to anonymize the connections as well as the votes.
@Joel Salazar Ramirez, tanks for this feedback !
@MD, SABBIR HOSSAIN, we do not plan to use anything other than text as a response element.
@Artur Szczygieł-Ryss, the latest version (https://moodle.org/plugins/mod_evoting/v3.9-r1/22286) still works with Moodle 3.11. If you have any problems, please write to us.
Would it be possible for future plans to add an sound to make a Kahoot-Style stress factor?
And also maybe let the choices big big and colourfull with symbols. If thats not too close to Kahoot

I have installed this plugin in my Moodle.
I want to know how to see the student's answer because I think it is anonymous.
Can this feature implement in the future?
For example, teachers decide if the quizz is anonymous or knowing the student's answer because I would like to use it as pre-evaluation with grading like kahoot! Or Quizziz apps.
Another thing, could it get questions from bank in the future?
I hope that this feature wil be implemented soon and then, this plugin wil be excellent and fabulous.
We are encountering a problem with this activity on Moodle 4.1 : order of answer choices displayed on student terminals is different from that displayed on the teacher's screen.
Thanks for your help,
The Google API for creating QR codes is no longer offered in this form. Therefore, the images / QR codes for quick scanning of the e-voting URL are no longer generated and displayed.
As a quick solution, you can certainly reference another service in the “view.php”. A better solution would be to have the library for generating the QR codes in the plugin.
I went to this alternative to the Google service, which I can host myself as a sub-URL: https://github.com/psyon/php-qrcode
