50+ Questions to Generate Audience Participation
When it comes to presentations, one of the most important things you can do is get your audience engaged and participating. This can be a challenge, but with the right questions, it can be easy!
In this post, we will provide you with over 50 different questions you can use in your next presentation. These questions are broken down into different types, so you can easily find the ones that will work best for your needs, as well as slide deck recs for each type of question.
Introduction Questions
Using questions in an introduction to a meeting or presentation sets the tone for the rest of your time together. These questions can also give the speaker an idea of the expectations and wants of those in the audience.
While asking some of these questions to a group can quickly devolve into side conversations or serve as distractions, picking one or two of them and having the group answer on their phones can provide real insight. We suggest using the Meeting Kickoff slide deck to quickly ask the questions, get the audience participating, and set the tone for the rest of the meeting.
1. Who here has ever been to a meeting where they were completely lost within the first five minutes?
2. How many of you have some knowledge about the topic we're discussing today?
3. What is something you're hoping to come away with after this presentation?
4. What are you tired of hearing about on this topic?
5. What motivates you most to learn about this topic?
6. What can I do to make this presentation valuable to you?
7. If you aren't here due to work obligations, would you still want to be here?
8. How do you prefer to consume information on this topic?
9. Do you prefer presentations/meetings in-person or virtually?
10. What would help you focus for the rest of this presentation?
Word Cloud Questions
Another fantastic way to gauge what your audience feels or thinks about certain topics (while keeping them engaged and entertained) is through the use of word clouds. Unlike open-ended questions, word clouds allow an audience to answer a prompt and give a visual representation to the group on which answer is the most prevalent.
Word clouds are an excellent way to draw a group back in mid-meeting and gauge the mindset of your audience. Slides with Friends has a fantastic Word Cloud Game you can put together in a few moments to boost the participation in your next presentation.
1. How are you feeling right now?
2. Who has had the biggest influence on your life?
3. What person in our industry has had the biggest impact on your career?
4. What's something you're worried about professionally today?
5. What's something you're excited about professionally today?
6. What's one of the best ideas our company/group has come up with?
7. How would you describe our last month in one word?
Ice Breaker Questions
If you’re hosting a meeting with a smaller group that’s already comfortable with each other, meeting icebreakers can loosen tongues and generate conversation. These questions are also a bit more fun, perfect for easing into a heavier presentation.
Use our Meeting Icebreaker slide deck to start your meetings with a little bit of sharing and laughter. Setting the tone at the beginning of your meeting will keep the audience engaged throughout.
1. What’s your favorite tradition or holiday?
2. What fictional world or place would you like to visit?
3. What is your favorite time of the day? Why?
4. What's one routine that has changed how you work?
5. What's something about the co-worker/person next to you that you appreciate?
6. What's your biggest non-work goal right now?
7. What's something you're willing to share that we don't know about you?
This or That Questions
With larger groups, it can be even more difficult to grab and keep everyone’s attention, much less get the group to participate. The key to using questions with larger audiences is to keep the answers simple and easy to share.
One of our favorite ways of keeping an audience engaged with questions is with this or that questions. Or, as we call them at Slides with Friends, tea vs coffee questions. Our slide deck Tea vs Coffee was created to make engaging with big groups easier, but still fun.
1. Coffee or tea?
2. Hot or cold climate?
3. Pager or fax machine?
4. Train or plane?
5. Staycation or vacation?
6. Netflix or Amazon Prime?
7. Mountains or beach?
8. Macs or PCs?
9. Beer or wine?
10. Work from home or in the office?
Discussion Questions
Sometimes to generate audience participation, you need to let them do the talking. This is the concept that inspired the discussion questions we’ve put together. What are things people want to talk about while still staying on topic? What can you ask to get the group involved and engaged without derailing the purpose of the gathering?
With the Brainstorming Session Template slide deck, you can present your questions to the group and either have them answer aloud or through their phones. The key here is taking a step back and letting them lead the conversation.
1. What is the best advice you've ever gotten about your career?
2. What was your first job? How has it influenced your career now?
3. How have you seen your industry change in the past 10 years?
4. What is your favorite thing about your job?
5. What is the hardest thing about your job?
6. What are some of the biggest challenges you see in your industry right now?
7. What's one thing you wish was more efficient about your job?
8. What small change can we make today that will shift how we work long-term?
Exit Questions
We’d all love to think every single one of our presentations was a slam dunk, but we know that’s not true. One way to finish up strong and with appreciated audience participation is to ask how you did.
Use the questions below in our Project Wrap Up slide deck to find out how you did and what you can change for the next time you meet. The best way to improve audience participation is to give the group what they want. These questions will help you figure out what that ‘want’ is.
1. What was your favorite part of the presentation?
2. What are you going to do with what you learned today?
3. Who is going to help you implement what you learned today?
4. When are you going to start using what you learned today?
5. What's your plan for continuing to learn about this topic?
6. How would you rate the overall quality of the presentation?
7. What could we have done better?
8. Was the pace too fast, too slow, or just right?
9. Did you feel like you learned something new?
Silly Questions
And finally, just for the fun of it, here are a few of our favorite silly questions to ask the crew at your next Happy Hour Hang . Sure, these questions might devolve into laughter, but that still counts as participation!
1. How would you describe your job to a preschooler?
2. What would your entrance song be if you were coming out on stage?
3. What place in time do you think you'd fit in the most?
4. What do you think is the most overrated show or movie right now?
5. What fictional team (X-Men, Avengers, Justice League) is the best?

Have you ever had a question that only the stars could possibly answer? Now you can ask it with our beautiful galaxy / universe quiz design. This quiz template is the perfect way to go for all the people who adore some extravagant designs - you'll definitely wow your audience! The only downside is that your quiz participants might be so mesmerized by the galactic infinity that they may actually forget to vote for the right answer.
#2 - Basic True and False Quiz (Black & White Style)
This template is pretty plain and basic, yet far from boring! The contrast between black and white and the diagonal text elements make it the perfect elegant choice for anyone who's looking for an interesting and timeless classic design. It even comes in three different options. You can either decide for one or use all three in one quiz-session. We got you covered with one simple white, one black, and one half black- half white design for anybody who can't decide which one they like better. You can use this template for all kinds of questions that have two possible answers (so it is perfect for Yes/No or True/False quizzes!)
#3 - Kahoot PowerPoint Template
Unfortunately, there is no way to conduct a Kahoot quiz via PowerPoint. Until now! We built this wonderful template that looks exactly like the design of our favorite online- quiz- game. But now you can easily play it in your presentation without having to open the browser. And don't worry, participating via smartphone is still absolutely possible and easier than ever by using the SlideLizard Quiz Creator Plugin . Similar to Kahoot it lets you conduct fun audience quizzes, but embedded directly within your PowerPoint presentation!
#4 - Summer Beach Style Quiz
Get some instant holiday vibes without leaving the country, or even the house! Inspired by our tropical island PowerPoint template (which you can get right here !), we designed a wonderful new quiz template that will give you and your audience the feeling of being on vacation while you're actually in a meeting, lecture, or elsewhere. So it is basically everything you could ever want in a quiz. There are even two background styles that you can choose between!
#5 - Keyboard Style Yes/No Quiz
Without a doubt, our keyboard style Yes/No Quiz is one of the most creative ones! It is really fun and an amazing option for anyone who's looking to switch things up a little. The best thing? It comes with an esc- option! So if your quiz participants really, really don't know the answer, they can just - well - escape instead! The slides with the Escape- options are optional however, so if you'd rather want your audience to vote either Yes or No, you can leave out the esc- key. It doesn't matter, weather you're only asking if the audience needs a bathroom break or hard- to- answer trivia questions, with this template you're always in style!
#6 - Personality Quiz
Until now you probably thought more about doing trivia questions in your presentations, but did you know that personality quiz questions can also be an amazing engagement- enhancing element during any presentation? They are especially great as ice breaker questions , but could also be used as mood- lightener at any point. And the best thing: If you get SlideLizard, you can even see the audience results, so you have a statistic overview of e.g. people's favorite ice cream flavors (or whatever else you've always wanted to ask!) P.S: You could also use all the other templates in this post as personality quizzes, but this one is specifically designed as such.
#7 - Picture Quiz
If pictures speak to you more than words do, our picture quiz template might be the one for you! It comes with a fun, modern and playful design, and the pictures can of course be changed to whatever you want them to be (you can also add or remove new images, so there is a selection of 2, 3 or 6 pictures). The picture quiz can be used for testing vocabulary (although #9 covers that already), or to spice up your trivia questions. You could even use it as a fun way to introduce yourself to the audience (e.g. "Which of these baby photos is me?") in order to break the ice. Tip: If you want to know more about ice breaker questions, check out our blog post here .
#8 - Minimalist Quiz
Minimalism is extremely popular right now, and we totally get why! This is the simplest out of all the templates, but isn't it beautiful? With this quiz template, you get slides for Multiple Choice AND True/False questions! We are in love with this template in all its simplicity, but if you want, you could definitely use this as a blank canvas and upgrade it by adding pictures, backgrounds, new fonts or your favourite colors. The sky is the limit!
#9 - Vocabulary Quiz
This one is different from all the other quizzes, since it is neither multiple nor single choice, but instead somewhat of a memory game. We recommend this animated PowerPoint quiz template for testing new vocabulary or difficult terminology, but you could also adapt it and make it a regular open question format by writing questions instead of words on the cards and the right answers on the green cards below (it sounds more difficult than it actually is, and when you download the template, you'll get a detailed guide on how to use it.) In this format, there are some boxes with words in English (which you can exchange with your own words, obviously). By clicking on those boxes in presentation mode, they disappear and leave a green answer card. You can easily play this with your audience/students by letting them shout out the translation of a certain word and then clicking on the matching box to see if the translation is correct.
#10 - Exclusive Who Wants to be a Millionaire Quiz Template
Last but certainly not least, is our "Who wants to be a Millionaire" Template, which we created exclusively for you to feel like a real game show contestant! The whole template is pretty extensive, which is why we put it in a blog article on its own. Be sure to check it out right here in order to learn how to get the best experience possible out of the game - you'll also find the Download link there. The template comes with everything you could wish for - sound effects, a design that is stunningly similar to the real one, and even the possibility to participate via smartphone! The video below gives you a short demonstration of how the game looks.
Let your audience participate with their smartphone
Once you have chosen a quiz, you have to ask yourself: How do I conduct it during my presentation? Of course, you could just let your audience raise their hands for the answers of their choice - but that seems outdated and overly complicated (counting the amount of votes for each answers,...). The way more convenient option is to use an application like SlideLizard, which allows your audience to vote for the answer of their choice via their mobile devices, making the experience a whole lot better - quiz competitions have never been better!
The process is easy:
- Get SlideLizard for free by clicking here .
- Connect your presentation with SlideLizard. If you need more details on how to do that, please watch this short video tutorial .
- The Slides are already programmed to fill in your questions and Answers into the slots. We recommend to start by creating all the quiz questions you want to ask your audience.
- Then, duplicate the question slide as often as you need (= same number of questions you created). It is also a good idea to insert an answer slide after every question.
- You only need to assign the questions to the slides , and you're good to go!
Watch our video to get detailed instructions on how to connect your quiz with SlideLizard:
Adapt the templates
If you'd like to use one of our templates, but feel like making some adjustments, you can easily do that yourself. All of the given templates can be modified, you can make a two- answer quiz in a multiple choice one and vice versa, you can change colors, fonts and shapes to fit your personal taste or company branding. In the following quick guide, you will be shown how certain elements can be transformed. We're using our galaxy template as an example, but all the templates are transformable in the same or very similar ways.
So here's our downloaded template:
Now, let's start by changing the background first. Click anywhere on a slide and select "Format Background"...
Then go to "Picture or texture fill" (or Solid Fill if you want the background to be a plain color).
After clicking "Insert" your file explorer will open. Select the picture of your choice and click "Insert" once again. Your backround is now changed.
The existing boxes should be rectangular, don't you think? Let's do that by deleting the existing boxes and exchanging them with new ones. To do so, click on a box, then right click > "Cut" (or hit the backspace key). Then go to the insert tab and click "Shapes", where you can choose the shape of your choice and draw it on the slide. Place it where you want.
If the object you just drew hides the text, just go to the "Shape Format" Tab and then click "Send backward" until the text shows again.
And while we're at it, maybe just remove two answer options and make it a True/False quiz? If you want to, you can also change the font, and we're good to go! You just modified our quiz and made a whole new one that has your own personal handwriting!

The benefits of using an Any Questions slide are numerous. It allows the presenter to address any confusion or misunderstandings the audience may have about the content. Additionally, it allows the presenter to demonstrate their expertise and knowledge on the topic, which can further establish their credibility with the audience.

What is a Question Slide?
A question slide is a one-page part of your presentation that you can use to encourage your audience to ask questions. Its purpose is to facilitate an interactive and engaging session by providing a dedicated space for the audience to ask any questions they may have about the content you presented.
It is usually placed toward the end of a presentation after you have shared your main ideas or key information. It prompts the audience to reflect on the material and think of any uncertainties, clarifications, or additional insights they would like to seek.
How do you ask if there are Any Questions in a presentation?
To ask if there are any questions in a presentation, you can say something like “Does anyone have any questions?” or “I’d be happy to answer any questions you may have.” It’s important to give the audience enough time to think and formulate questions, so try to pause for a few seconds after asking the question to give them time to respond.
How do you present a Q&A Slide?
When presenting a Q&A slide, you can use a simple slide with a heading such as “Q&A” or “Questions and Answers,” followed by a blank space where you can display the questions the audience asks. Depending on the format of your presentation, you may choose to display the Q&A slide at the end of the presentation, or you may pause the presentation and switch to the Q&A slide to address any questions that arise during the presentation. It’s important to be prepared to answer a variety of questions.
What is the purpose of a Question Slide in a presentation?
The purpose of a question slide in a presentation is to foster interaction and engagement with the audience. Here are some key purposes for including a question slide:
- It encourages participation among your audience.
- It allows your audience to voice their uncertainties and seek clarifications.
- It helps your audience to delve deeper into the topics you covered.
- It helps tailor your discussion and provides you with valuable feedback.

- It helps you build a rapport between you and your audience.
When should I display the Question Slide?
The question slide is displayed toward the end of a presentation after you present all the key points. It allows your audience to reflect on the content and think of any questions they may have.

- 7 Tips to Encourage Audience Questions in Your Presentation Q&A
September 19, 2017
Ever seen a presenter ask “Any questions?” at the end of their presentation, and heard only crickets from the audience?
In my work as a professional emcee and trade show presenter , I see it often, and it always makes me cringe because it’s so awkward, and so completely avoidable.
Asking for questions and getting none kills a presentation’s momentum. It usually goes like this:
- The presenter, having run out of content, asks “Any questions?”
- The audience, having no questions, freezes in place.
- Everyone thinks they hear crickets, though there are none in the room.
- The presenter, getting no questions, says, “OK, I guess I’m done.”
OUCH. How’d that happen?
Chances are, you caught your audience by surprise. They didn’t know you’d take questions, so they didn’t think of any. When you asked, you caught them off guard.
I want your next presentation to end with a bang, not a whimper. So try these tips to encourage questions:
1. PREPPING YOUR Q&A: PRIME YOUR AUDIENCE
> TIP THEM OFF EARLY: As you start your presentation, tell your audience: “I’ll take all your questions at the end, so write down your questions as you think of them along the way.” That’ll get them active thinking of questions throughout your presentation.
> REMIND THEM: A few minutes before you take questions, say: “I’ve got one more slide to cover, then I’ll take your questions.” That’ll remind them to think of some questions if they haven’t yet.
2. STARTING YOUR Q&A: GIVE THEM A NUDGE
> LEAVE ROOM: Starting a Q&A with little or no time left discourages questions; your audience wants to leave on time too! Instead, carve out 5-10 minutes or more for questions (and cut some content to make room if needed; your audience prioritizes the information they want to get over the information you want to share).
> USE A PLANT: Have a “plant” in the audience who’ll ask the first question (one you’re comfortable answering), which encourages other audience members to ask (and saves them the awkwardness of going first) and gives them time to think of something to ask.
> CHANGE YOUR PHRASING: Your audience may interpret the phrase “Any questions?” as a sign that you don’t expect or even want questions, which discourages them from asking. Instead, encourage questions by phrasing your question with a more upbeat, expectant tone: “Who’s got a question?” or “Who’d like to go first?”
> ASK IT YOURSELF: Ask yourself a common question: “One question I get often is…” Then answer it. Again, this encourages the audience to follow suit, and gives them more time to think of a question.
3. ENDING YOUR Q&A: ADD THAT BANG!
Q&A or not, ending your presentation by saying you’re ending your presentation (“OK, I guess I’m done”) will end your presentation with a whimper. You can easily replace that whimper with a “bang” by restating your main takeaway and thanking your audience:
“Folks, I hope my presentation has shown you that when it’s raining and you want to stay dry outside, use an umbrella! You won’t regret it. Thanks so much for your time.”
And thank you so much for your time!
