Tech Happenings @ LvHS

www.PollEverywhere.com is a really fun service that will accommodate teachers for free. Go ahead and make an account and have fun! Voting is always anonymous since it’s the free version. You create as many polls as you want. The students respond in your choice of ways: Embed a cool voting widget on your class page Send them a link via email Put the link on your class page Tell them to vote during non-school hours (different type of assignment) using either text messaging or with a smartphone/iPod touch. You and your students can view a graph of responses as they come in! You can do something like Beth Brewer did during her assembly… or you can ask students to gather data at home and report it… Or you can gather free response answers. All answers can be organized and downloaded.

I have time to assist you one-on-one with whatever would make your class even more awesome. But working with several of you at once is better for idea sharing … Click this link to vote via the web for what you’d like to try and we’ll schedule a mini-training. http://www.polleverywhere.com/multiple_choice_polls/LTEyNDM3Mjk2OTE/web You can view the responses any time by clicking on this link: http://www.polleverywhere.com/multiple_choice_polls/LTEyNDM3Mjk2OTE thanks for giving me some quick feedback!

Students in Ms. Hyman's health classes use Voki to create a segment to introduce themselves to the class. they really enjoyed it and had a good time getting to know each other through the creative use of avitars.
