Poll Everywhere - Student Feedback What do you like best about this course?: I like the poll everywhere app. The app helps as a study guide and keeps you involved during class. The weekly quiz forces you to look over the material each week.  I like how he incorporated CPA exam questions into every class. This was very helpful to get an idea of the language and type of questions I will see on the CPA exam. I also enjoyed doing research on a fraud case. The in class poll questions keep my interest. I have learned so much and the course has helped me choose what i actually want to do with my career (be an auditor) Poll Everywhere questions helped my gain exposure and understanding to how the questions would be formatted on the CPA. Also giving us the final and midterms from the previous classes helps cut down on study time and understanding the material better.  the flip grids I really liked how the professor is prepared for the class and presents the information well. Really like the online flip-grid discussion and the poll everywhere questions during the presentations.  It was interesting I was introduced to some new technology with the polls and adobe spark and the recording of discussion questions. It took me out of my comfort zone and I was pleasantly surprised.
