Scale
The scale collects ratings without a correct answer — clarity, agreement, pace, a school grade. With several statements it becomes a short questionnaire. The reveal shows distribution, mean and median.
Scale with a template
Participants tap one step — for example from 1 to 5 or from 0 to 10. You set From, To and the labels of the two ends yourself, or take them from a template such as “Agreement”, “School grade” or “Recommendation (0–10)”. The reveal shows distribution, mean and median.
