PollEveryWhere and Quizlet
Kim Belknap is doing a presentation for our social studies in-service later this week on PollEverywhere which allows the teacher to quiz students using a phone (doesn't have to be a smartphone) or a laptop. Above is how you do it. Kim has also created a how-to sheet here.
