Today’s Meet October 29, 2009

I learned of this really cool site yesterday at MassCUE– actually I overheard a group of folks talking about this “Twitter-like tool that would easily allow for immediate student feedback”. Naturally I was intrigued and so I asked if they would share the information with me and they did! The site is called Today’s Meet. Basically what you do –without needing to register or give up your email address– is to create a room where you can then have students share their thoughts, observations, etc. As the site states “embrace the backchannel and connect with your audience in real time”. Once you create a room it gives you a unique URL and you decide how long you want this room available (options are from 2 hours to 1 year). You then give the URL to your students, they pick a name, join the room and can begin to share their thoughts and opinions using 140 characters or less. Using a SMART Board to project/present the posts would work well. ENJOY!
