Socrative

Socrative.com is a smart student response system that empowers teachers to engage their classrooms through a series of educational exercises and games via smartphones, laptops, and tablets. Teachers and students can use Socrative on any device with a web browser (tablets, smartphones, laptops, iPod Touches, etc.). Teachers login at t.socrative.com by entering their email and password. Students login at m.socrative.com by entering the "virtual room number" provided by the teacher. Students will then see "Waiting for teacher to start an activity...". Teachers initiate an activity by selecting it on their main screen (e.g. Multiple Choice, T/F, Quick Quiz). Students respond on their devices. Students' results are visible on the Teacher's screen or sent in an email. I really like this website, because it allows the teacher to get students attention by using tools that the students already have and use everyday and put a purpose behind it.
