Q&A Wall — Live Audience Questions

The hands that go up at the end of a session are rarely the hands with the best questions. A Q&A wall lets everybody type theirs the moment they think of it, and lets the room decide which ones are worth the remaining ten minutes — so the quiet half of the group gets a vote on the agenda too.

The wall is always anonymous — there is no name field anywhere, not even for the trainer's eyes, which matters when the subject is safeguarding, pay, or anything a junior colleague would not ask out loud. Each person can upvote a question once and take the vote back, so the ranking reflects how many people want an answer, not how fast they tapped.

With moderation switched on, nothing reaches the projector until you approve it — useful with a mixed audience or a livestreamed session. The asker still sees their own question marked as waiting, so it never looks like a failed send. Mark questions answered as you go, hide anything off-topic with a tap (and put it back just as easily), and the wall deletes itself after seven days.
