How to host a remote quiz

Olivia Hanifan2020-03-23

As many of us are social distancing, at Mentimeter we are turning that around and doing distant socializing. Just because we are all working from home and are unable to meet each other, it doesn’t mean that we have to stop socializing. Luckily the internet provides us with a plethora of opportunities to keep our spirits high and have fun! It’s so important that whilst we are remote working or online learning that we maintain social interactions for our mental health.

Remote quizzes are a fun way to connect with friends and family wherever they are located. Mentimeter enables you to host a quiz right from your living room and reach as many people as you want for some lighthearted trivia.
