[The student experience](https://www.gonurture.com/signal/faq.md#student-experience)

Yes, in two ways.

-   Make a question anonymous and you see the answers, but not who gave them. Use it for sensitive questions where honesty matters more than follow-up. It can’t be changed once students start answering, so students can trust it.
-   When you show results on the board, presenter view can hide names, so the class never sees who answered what, while you still can.
