Some examples of crowdsourcing in the classroom.

This website is a centralized location for crowdsourcing US government initiatives, grants, contests, etc. Here are some great contests to engage your grad students and high school students if you're here in the US (or just about anyone.)

US government is crowdsourcing problems and ideas on this website.

Google Moderator is a simple tool that helps groups determine which questions should be asked at all hands meetings, conferences, Q&A sessions, etc. The idea is that there are always lots of good questions to ask in a limited period of time, but it's hard to know which questions the attendees are most interested in hearing discussed. Moderator lets users add questions and vote on the questions of others, so the cream rises to the top.

This way, the most popular and relevant questions would rise to the top so that the presenter or the moderator of an event could run the discussion more efficiently and in a transparent manner.
