Plickers Update

Plickers is one tech tool that many teachers love, and the app keeps coming out with new updates. In the most recent update, Plickers allows users to create folders to help organize their questions. Folders make it easy to not only create questions, but to make the process of using Plickers in the classroom much easier.


For those of you who do not know what Plickers is, it is a student response program (similar to clickers) that uses only ONE classroom device and QR codes. The teacher uses the classroom device (iPad, iPhone, tablet, etc.) to scan students holding QR code cards. If a student thinks the answer to a question is "A", then the student will rotate their QR code card so "A" is facing up. The teacher then scans the class using their device to collect responses. This tool not only is fun and engaging, but it gives students confidence that they will not get singled out for providing the wrong answer.
