I looked at a number of things under this topic. I have been using Google Classroom this year in the library and the students have responded very well to it. When they turn in their work they love to give a comment or ask me a question. I have also set up a Google Classroom and forgot to turn on the student to student comments - that has turned out to be just a little bit of a distraction :)
Being able to comment back to them on their Google Doc or assignment has been very useful too. I am currently working with 5th grades and doing book reviews.
I left a comment on Padlet. I liked the format.
I am integrating Google Apps more and more into my program and I would like to explore further next year using Google Forms.
I loved the Answercloud. I have been using word clouds with my younger grades. The students really respond well to them. It is a perfect activity for a wrap up to reading a book. This answercloud will be a great enhancement to that because they can all see each other's responses.
Looked at the Quizlet program on the suggestion of another Cool Tool blog post from a co-worker. I like what I see so far in it. Made a few flash cards for vocab words in a unit about plagiarism. I will try and use it with my intermediate students.
There are quite a few options under this topic to use for just about any class situation. This will be great to choose from in the future.
