What is Socrative? Think CPS clickers but simpler. And using handheld devices/phones instead of clickers. Socrative is really simple to use. You create a free account, and start making a quiz. You can do multiple choice, true/false, and even short answer! There is a teacher app and a student app. Once you create an account you are given a room number. Students enter that room number on their app to join your room.
You can even use socrative to ask verbal questions. Can you say formative assessment?! It's kind of brilliant.
There is a quiz mode, an "exit ticket" mode , and the space race which is a game based on one of your saved quizzes.
When your class is done, you can clear the room with one click. You can run the entire thing either from your own device or from your computer, whichever you prefer. And it will email you a report at the end of your activity!
This looks like a good one guys! My biggest concern at the moment is that it might not remain free for very long.
