This was used in a class I took and I found it a fascinating tool to doing a poll or survey for a class. It allows students to use the tech that they generally already use to a great extent - such as responding by text from the phone using a code specific to that poll, responding via twitter, or on the PollEv.com site directly. I haven't integrated this yet into a class, but I can really see potential here after using it in a class

Poll Everywhere is the easiest way to gather live responses in any venue... conferences, concerts, classrooms, and company off-sites - anywhere with internet. We've been working to end 'death by PowerPoint' and raise the bar on presenting since 2008. More than 4,000 schools and 100,000 teachers poll with Poll Everywhere.

The http://www.polleverywhere.com/features website contains video clips of the various features that you can use with polling. I found the PowerPoint slide information interesting.

With CloudVOTE, you can upload, store and manage your personal or business presentation templates and never have to worry about the content again. No one can modify the content once it's stored as a template, so simply log in, start a poll from an existing template and collect feedback from your audience. ----Bookmark by M Brown for Technology Tools course march 2016

I have used Poll Everywhere, Padlet, Google Docs/Forms for checking students' group work in class, but I've always wanted a simple tool that takes a second for students to complete and another second for me to check their completion but a tool where students don't get to "cheat" by peeking at what other groups are writing because they can't see what other students are typing until they post their answers!

I use Padlet all the time in my class for a quick sentence or paragraph-level group writing activity - it's easy to share with your students and you can embed it very easily! http://padlet.com/salinmiso/8tihmalkbcyl
