About:
Are you looking for a fun way to use technology in the classroom to get an informal assessment form your students? Well stop looking now! You can use Poll Everywhere! To get started with Poll Everywhere go to http://www.polleverywhere.com/. Poll Everywhere is a way to engage your students using technology and also learn more about what student already understand and what students do not understand before beginning a unit of instruction. We can create any poll that we want to use in our classroom! How exciting is that! 🙂
When students are answering poll they can use their cell phones, computers or tablets. All the students need is the internet to answer the poll questions. If there are not enough devices for all students, you can have to students answer the questions in groups.
