Share Your Ideas, Thoughts, and Opinions with Us!
We will be using a feedback platform, Mentimeter, again at this year’s Annual Meeting. Mentimeter allows you to share your thoughts and feedback anonymously, and we can all see the results in real time!
New to Mentimeter? If you’ve never used Mentimeter before, you can access it from a web browser on any computer or smartphone – there’s nothing that you need to install or download. You’ll simply enter the code from the Annual Meeting agenda or presentation slide and then you’ll be able to see and respond to discussion questions. You can watch an overview of Mentimeter here or try a practice Menti here (scroll to “Test Mentimeter”).
Closed Captioning Services are Available!
The Board is providing closed captioning for the Annual Meeting again through StreamText. Meeting attendees will have the option to use StreamText for real-time captions during the Annual Meeting. You can learn more about StreamText here. Just a heads up – you will need to open up a separate window on your computer to view the captions. We will send the link to connect to StreamText as the meeting gets closer.
