The Whiteboard Blog posted an article about www.socrative.com. This website allows teachers and students to create a poll for many uses. Apps are available for various Apple products (iPod, iPhone, iPad, etc) and one for Android as well. Socrative can be opened up with a web browser and students are able to answer short questions or complete entire tests. This website sounds very similar to Google docs and their form option. I like the idea behind the apps. This would be a wonderful tool for school systems that have purchased iPads or similar devices for their students. Teachers who are brave and willing to allow students to use their cellphones may also find a use for this tool.
