Wallwisher

Wallwisher is an interactive website that another teacher, Eilidh, shared with me (thanks!).  You can click on the picture below to link to the wallwisher home page.


We talked about wallwisher as an option to include technology in your class by having your students use their smartphones to post to the wall that you have displayed on the screen in your class.  Students could work in pairs or small groups and probably everyone would have access to a phone.  It may be an alternative to brainstorming when not all students feel comfortable contributing orally.  The picture below is from wallwisher's site and lists a few of the options they've come up with for using wallwisher.

I am currently working on a wall that is posting options for how to use wallwisher in your classroom.  You can go to the wall where I'm brainstorming ideas for class use by clicking the picture below.  Please add your own ideas for how you could use wallwisher in your class.  I am the moderator for the wall, so they get sent to me and then posted.  Thanks!
