Socrative is a cool assessment tool. I found out about the tool after using it for my Professional Development. You can create short quizzes for the students, exit slips for them to complete at the end of the class. One of the cool features Socrative has is Space Race, which is a race against teams to see who can complete the most questions in a set time. I really want to use this tool next year in school.
Many of us are familiar with using Skype to talk to friends. Well Skype in the classroom takes it one step further. You don't just collaborate with the entire class, but it enables you to connect with classroom around the world. It can help break down bearers between different cultures and . Another amazing feature that it has is Virtual Field Trip. Schools can't always afford field trips, so Viritual Field trip enables a classroom to tour places like the African Serengetti or the Louve Museum. Still another great way of bringing the world to the classroom is Talking with a Guest Speaker. Teacher themselves don't always have the answer but experts in a particular field do. You can choose from over a thousand different educators to speak with your class on topics dealing to your lessons. It is a chance for your class to have great access to knowledge. https://education.microsoft.com/skypeintheclassroom
