Possible Resources for Classroom Use

I found a couple of resources that might be of use to some of you in your classrooms. All are free but you might have to make an account.

The first is called Padlet. Padlet lets users create interactive boards where you can post discussion questions, topics, brainstorming sessions, etc., and collect feedback. For example, you could create a wall and have students post as an exit survey activity at the end of class. Here is the link for Padlet: http://padlet.com/

Exit Ticket is an student response system that collects data at the end of the lesson. It looks similar to Socrative and other data collecting apps. There is a free version available to teachers.

Todays Meet looks really neat because you can create a room and use it as a backchannel chat. It is similar to Twitter and Edmodo but allows the teacher to facilitate the online discussions. Here is a link to Todays Meet: https://todaysmeet.com/
This post also gives a bit of information about Todays Meet:

I haven't started incorporating any of these yet but I plan on trying Padlet with my upcoming 8th Grade Group.
