This post comes to you from the Pacific Northwest! I (Rob) got to work with some FABULOUS teachers at the AP Psych Institute in Bellevue, WA, and we worked with an interesting website this morning: Poll Everywhere
http://www.polleverywhere.com/
This site allows you to post a multiple choice question for folks (students and/or teachers in a prof. development course, etc.) who can then text in a certain code and "vote" on one of the options. At our institute we used poll everywhere as part of a discussion about "Formative Diagnostic Items" - a formative assessment technique that helps teachers quickly gather data about student misconceptions.
(By the way: My participants are the BEST participants ever in the history of AP Psychology institutes. So there)

You flatter!
I was lucky enough to be a part of Rob's presentation. He was great. This website and the features of Poll Everywhere are awesome. A great way to check in with your students about their knowledge...formative assessment as Rob would want me to say.
