This is a web-based quiz type game that allows up to 30 students to respond to questions you made. The game only allows for multiple choice type questions. Players earn points based on speed and accuracy of their responses. This is a great tool for student engagement and reviewing terms/concepts in class.

This tool allows teachers to create review games, polls, and quizzes that students can access with cell phones. It turns the cell phone into a "buzzer" so that students can earn points by answering correctly and quickly. It posts the tops scores after every round which leads to some healthy competition.

This student response tool works very well for formative assessments. Students can use it as little as an exit ticket or for a 20 question quiz. The results appear in a spreadsheet which is easy to download and use with your team for data.

Edpuzzle allows you to take any video, either one you created or found, and customize it.  You can add comments to the video, stop it and ask questions, insert a quiz the students must take before moving on, etc. Great for a flipped classroom!

An interactive way to assess students through ipads, iphones, androids and more!

This looks like a great tool to use in my classroom. It would be a quick way to assess students on a topic before moving on. This tool is clearly geared towards teachers. It can help them to quickly grade quizzes that are easy but tedious to correct such as true/false and multiple choice. I would like to play around with this a bit more and see if there are discussion opportunities with it. My students use Poll Everywhere to have discussions or answer polls, but the results are posted for everyone to see. I like that the tools grades the quizzes and posts the results to a spreadsheet format. That would be such an efficient way to grade. This is much more user friendly than other automatically graded quizzes like Flubaroo. Thanks for sharing!

A few teachers in my building use secretive and have shared it in professional development sessions. It looks very easy to use and seems like something students would be very easily engaged with. Great resource for teachers to use with students. It would be just as easy for students to design questions and present as a quiz or dipstick check for understanding after a presentation or some other in class assignment. My school uses Promethean boards so we have this same capability built into that technology with the Active Votes or Active Expressions. I can also see this being something you could do with the poll feature on Edmodo. I think there are more and more resources out there in this style. I agree with Kayla that this is MUCH easier to use than Flubaroo, even though that is a very useful tool as well.

I quick and easy way to set up that jeopardy game that every student seems to secretly enjoy on review days.

Create online flashcards for a class. You can share these with friends or colleagues.

I agree that these can be used in the classroom successfully. I have used something similar and have found success. Now, I am not sure what you teach but I think this would be best in a language classroom. That being said, it works in all settings. I like that this is primarily a student centered resource. Since students have to create their own flash card set they internalize the information. Finally, have you tried quizlet.com? It is a very similar resource that allows students to play different games with their sets. It too has an ipad app like cramberry which I like.

I agree with Kenton - it is a great resource for students to use to learn information. What I like about this one is that you can search ready-made sets. But I like quizlet.com a lot better. It has interactive games to learn the words and can even write quizzes for the students to test their knowledge. I have used that for independent study of vocabulary words for novels. I couldn't write 30 different quizzes to assess their familiarity with the new words they chose for themselves, but on quizlet they can take a quiz and show me their score. It has apps from Apple and Android so students can use it from different devices. Also, it has a print option for students who don't have access to a smart phone or internet outside of school. I like that it gives them an active way to study and instant feedback on what they know and what they need to study still. Finally, it has class options so I could enter a set and share it easily with the students.

QR code generator. Has some options other than plain B/W. Pretty cool!

I like QR Stuff so much I have even paid for its use. I like that they keep track of your history in a paid subscription. I've used QR Stuff to create vocabulary scavenger hunts, to make a poster of sites to share with other teachers and post a video of the scavenger hunt to share. I've even made my own audio book recordings through QR Stuff. I see this resource as one to be used by students and teachers. The site has so many options for teachers to create codes for their classrooms. Students can link documents to digital portfolios, QR Creators are popular, but I haven't found another one that offers as many choices in codes and personalization features as QR Stuff. Ben you should look into Aurasma, an augmented reality app that adds a 3D component. And Socrative can be used for formative assessments.

QR codes are great for students, teachers and community members. I would guess many students and adults are familiar with them and if they don't know how to use them, know someone who is. Renee and Ben, I know some teachers use QR codes as a link to their Aurasma pages. I like this site because it offers more than the first-generation QR code generators. I can see many uses - I'd love to try one of the t-shirt or visual AR codes. I'm a fan of Tagxedo, which reminds of of the visual AR codes shown on the website.
