This is especially a great way for teachers to organize all of their resources in one place. The tool is very easy to use. To get started you simply add tiles.

You can create a "wall" that has a topic or heading. Then, students (without logging in) can respond to your question or collaborate on the page. Students can type a response, add an image, or even upload video. This works great for a debate prompt or a topic that can have many sides. It could also be a page on which students collaborate to find information for a research project/assignment.
