==**Activity #1:**My high school students have departed for the year so the following is a little activity that will enable me learn more about my LTMS600 classmates using google forms. Please take about 2-3 minutes and respond to the survey questionnaire (below:).==

Next, the following is a map where we as virtual LTMS600 students can see each other in the group and how we are related to one another geographically.
 * Activity #2:**

 * Item #3: Word __#|cloud__ - based on our class mate's favorite restaurants:**


 * NOTE: for this word __#|cloud__ to form in its entirety I will need my LTMS 600 class mates to take 1 minute to respond to the restaurant above.**

 * A strong option for allowing for asynchronous communication (within the group) via media (pics, videos, text, voice over segments).
 * Audience can comment and then group sees who commented (again via multiple options)
 * Can be a fun and creative activity to maintain student engagement
 * Example: this (see Jan’s wiki) would be a goofy example to generate student interest and to capture their imagination

=** Poll Everywhere question sample: **=

http://www.polleverywhere.com/multiple_choice_polls/NDE1Njg1ODc3


 * Poll Everywhere:**
 * Essentially replaces “lets have a show of hands…”
 * Great for presentations and instructional lessons to provide immediate feedback
 * Easy to learn and users can quickly format and publish
 * Ideal for __#|mobile__ devices
 * Example: This particular question (see Jan’s wiki) could be presented to lead into a classroom discussion prior to a presidential debate for this upcoming fall __#|semester__
 * Meets my criteria

 * Tool which allows for fun gaming electronic interaction to learn content
 * Allows instructors to set up activities using various approaches such as target hot spots, quizzes, matching, flashcards, etc.
 * This tool allows for educators to produce content reinforcement activities relatively quickly to provide students with another means to learn, memorize or expand upon prior learning.
 * Example shown (see Jan’s wiki) is a task exercise produced for student reinforcement on the topic of plate tectonics within an Earth Science curriculum.

=** Pixton example: **=




 * A comic strip creation tool, which will allow students to express themselves and showcase their creativity
 * Dynamics interface tools easy to learn
 * struggled to share as pixton prefers email notification
 * Meets most of my criteria

=Glogster example= The following example was a lead-in poster example for the short story "The Most Dangerous Game" but the text did not transfer over during the embed process
 * Glogster.edu:**
 * Tool to create multimedia posters for display
 * Can create & upload graphics, sound, video, text, photos, videos, data plots
 * Has great potential to provide for limitless self expression of content via student presentations.
 * Not free and limited in features until a commitment is made ($29.95/yr for up to 50 students)
