Alternative Online Tools for Professors in the Classroom

In the previous webinar, CALI went over two tools that professors can freely use to engage students in a positive way using laptops in the classroom: Google Moderator and CALI InstaPoll.

For those of you interested in alternative tools with slightly different features check out these two tools:

  1. Berkman's Live Question Tool as an alternative to Moderator and
  2. West's InstaPoll feature in Twen (within this document is a guide, check its table of contents) as an alternative to CALI's.

If you can think of any other ones, let us know.

And don't forget about the webinar on MediaNotes, a video tagging software for evaluating student performances, next Friday.
