Poll Everywhere

"One of my favorite teaching resources is Poll Everywhere. I use it all the time. For a teacher, Poll Everywhere is a free, text-message based student response system. My Do Now uses Poll Everywhere, I incorporate Poll Everywhere into my lecture to keep kids engaged, and my closure uses Poll Everywhere. I was never a big believer in closure until I developed the one I use now. The kids love to do it, and I find it really helpful for my own assessment and planning after they leave. Here is how you can Get Your Tech Up and make an awesome, useful closure for your class."
