This Prezi on online audience response systems and participatory online tools was my contribution to a staff conference on techology enhanced learning on Friday 30th May. Not intended as an exhaustive list, the presentation highlighted some tools that have worked well for me in various contexts.

The tools featured were:
  • Poll Everywhere - online feedback and voting via text messaging and other options;
  • GoSoapbox - quizzes, polls, discussion plus a confusion barometer for large classes.
Other featured tools giving scope for online collaboration included:
  • Primary Wall - a Flash-based online corkboard for sticky notes.
  • Padlet - a more sophisticated online noticeboard allowing the user to add URLs, files and images to notes. This Padlet wall shows that it can be used for quite extended notes and reflections by a number of users. Lino also has similar functions.
  • Popplet - a graphical organiser for online notes using a mind map format to link ideas; as with Padlet, URLs and images can be included in the notes or 'Popples' (also available as an iPad app).
  • Google Docs - online documents that can be edited collaboratively and simultaneously (now available as an iPad app).
Honourable mentions also for Nearpod (discussed by other conference contributors), Mural.ly (a web platform allowing users to collect content and display it in a bulletin board-like space) and MindMeister (online and iPad collaborative mind mapping).
