What YuJa Engage is
YuJa Engage is a real-time student response system designed for higher education. Instructors can schedule or launch polls, and students can join with a poll code, QR code, or LMS login. Question formats include multiple choice, true or false, clickable images, short answers, word clouds, rankings, and open discussion. Live dashboards display response rates, answer distributions, and engagement trends, with analytics at institution, course, and activity levels. Instructors can upload captioned videos to generate poll questions with AI, then review, edit, and connect questions to the source video. Geolocation-based attendance polls can restrict participation to boundaries set by the institution, and results can sync with an LMS gradebook. Engage integrates through LTI with major LMSs and offers add-ons for PowerPoint, Google Slides, and Keynote. Native iOS and Android apps provide mobile access. The product is paid, with pricing available on request; there is no free plan.
