Back Channel chatting

A great tool where students can share ideas and collaborate is TodaysMeet.com.  I first used this tool at a technology conference in Toronto.  While the presenter spoke, many people were commenting or elaborating on was was being said.
Think of the real-time collaboration your class can have with this Web 2.0 tool.  Some quick examples:
  • While watching presentations, videos, lectures, etc, students can discuss terms being taught and collaboratively share notes
  • Collaborate with another school, invite professionals or while working on projects.
  • You will have an instant transcript of your student's thinking and of those "light bulb" moments.
It is very simple to use and doesn't need any email adressess or registration.  You can follow the pictures below to create your TodaysMeet......Today!
