Turn your Slides into an interactive branching presentation with Mazetec. 
* Add choices to your slides that your audience navigates from their phone. 
* Add a timer and points to show the cost and impact of decisions.
* Play it live with a group or send out solo. 


Originally built for training on how to respond to a mental health crisis, Mazetec captures the attention of busy multitasking students on the go and in the classroom and focuses them on your content.

Choices force people to stop and think about your content, add choices to your slides with Mazetec.

Play with a class or a group. Students join your presentation from their device. You see their choices live, who is on tab, and who hasn't responded. As you (the presenter) move forward all of the student screens are synchronized with your choice.

Create solo / asynchronous activities that students play on their own with a link.

Try the Open Choice feature to capture your class's questions on each slide.  Their questions create branches in the presentation that you can respond to and students can review asynchronous later with a link.  Learn more https://www.mazetec.org/hybrid-teaching/
