This is another version of online student response system that seems to go a step further than the Socrative learning tool.  This system allows you to record the questions in audio, use pictures and set up different classrooms.  You can even provide a link where each of the students can view the same web page at once while the teacher discusses a topic.  The tool allows the students to respond with a drawing which is great for dyslexic students struggling with writing.  

This is a site that allows the users to take a photo and ask a question related to the photo and the participants give back responses in texts, writing, drawing or voice. It is really cool . This was probably placed on the Diigo before, but this post is from Byrne on how this is implemented in the classroom. Check it out

This wonderful post discusses the iPad as uses for the following skills: reader, creator, student response system, classroom manger study tool, organizer and differentiator. Phenomenol post.

This site assists you in clarifying the blurred lines between cyberbullying and socially responsible digital citizenship. A good resource tool.

"It can be difficult to find useful and engaging programs to use in your classroom, especially when budgets don't allow for it. Here's a fresh idea: meaningful content using real-life scenarios that engages teenagers and doesn't cost a dime. That's Banzai." OMG this program and the reviews look great! Everything is there for you to use. Read the FAQ portion first and you will get most of your questions answered. It is suppose to work on the iPad but I would use traditional computers for this web tool. You need to print the booklets for the students first and the time to use the program is said to be three to four hours or at least 4-5 classes. It looks great to teach financial literacy with a small group or classroom.
