Polling tools event

Introduction In this recorded session we took a look at if, and how, we use/have used e-polling or surveys. The idea for this session was triggered when I used a poll in the overview for last week’s Serendipity and wondered about the different polling and survey tools that people use. http://johart1.edublogs.org/2012/01/16/edublogs-webinar-overview-what-poll-was-that/

Summary of an online event aboput using Polling tools. Thinking about ideas beyond engagement - should be a good stats discussion starter. by shellyw39 Jan 16
