Poll Everywhere!

This
survey tool would be helpful to anonymously poll students in a class. I
found it easy to use and even fun to text my answer and see it come up
on the Smart board! If students have a craving to use some kind of
technology in the classroom (i.e. smart phones), this tech tool might
assuage it.
There are a variety of types of survey one can
create: multiple choice, true/false, open-ended, etc. While this tool
seems like it would be a beneficial way to incorporate an engaging
technology into the classroom, a downfall is the potential for students
to take advantage of their time on the Smart phones. Even I found
myself distracted as texts and emails popped when we tried out the
tool. I suppose it would be fun to at least try out for a classroom or
even school-wide survey. I see potential in it even as a way to
brainstorm ideas for writing!
