Next, you should select the “Participation” dropdown menu.  Under that menu, you can set the percentage of questions that the student needs to answer to receive participation points under “Session Threshold”, and the number of points per session should be set under “Participation Points”.

To export the grades to Scholar, you must first run a poll with your participant list.  To do so, open the TurningPoint software and select a participant list on the left. Then conduct your polling as normal.

When you’ve finished polling, you’ll be asked if you want to save the session. Click Save, and save the session in the folder that is selected by default.
