I just used Poll Everywhere in a presentation on campus with pre-service teachers! It was a hit!! I've never seen a class so quiet and so focused with that many cellphones out!

I feel like this would be a great tool if it's used in the right context. I don't necessarily think elementary would be the right place for it. For the students that actually have phones you don't know if the students have texting included in their plans. You might get them in trouble with their parents, hence you get in trouble for telling them to send a text. In older grades I could see this going over very well and I've seen it used in a college class before. It's a nice change of pace in that context.

I actually used Poll Everywhere in my Level 1 Teaching Experience and loved it! The students got to see some results of our lessons, I got a quick formative assessment, and the data was nicely organized for graphing or applying to spreadsheets!

Hi Austin! I had never heard of Kidblog before but it seems like a great resource for teachers to use in their classrooms if they want their students to have a blogging experience! It is specifically for kids and it is a safe and age-appropriate way to encourage kids to write. I have used Blogger, etc., for my own personal use but I don't think that kind of website would be suitable for kids to use, especially if they're just learning how to use a blog responsibly. This is a great resource for kids to create beginning blogs on!

This quick article went through 35 web 2.0 tools. I like this list because it has some of the easier things to work with (Prezi, Twitter) to some more advanced things like Diigo and Wikispaces.

I love lists like this because it is so much easier to rely on someone else's compilation as a starting point rather than gathering tools on your own.

Scott McLeod blog discussing technology, leadership and the future of schools. He is also a very passionate speaker who I was lucky enough to get to hear speak at ISLI on Oct 5, 2013

Kim, I browsed through this blog a little bit to check out some of the posts and they seem awesome! I believe this blog can be an amazing resource for educators and I could use it efficiently in my future classroom for ideas, motivation, and support. I believe this resource is mostly for teachers as it is a blog about the future of our schools with mainly content focused for teachers. I have posted a similar blog, Wesley A. Fryer's, on our class diigo page, you might want to check it out! Thank you for this resource!
