There are tonnes of apps out there for 1-1 classrooms, including SoCreative, Edmodo, and KidBlog. These apps include features that allow the teacher to easily track the success of students, and highlight which students are struggling with particular areas of the curriculum. However, these apps were limited to classrooms with access to a fair amount of in-class technology. It seemed, before, that teachers without these options would lose out on this convenience of the 21st century.
This is where Plickers comes in. This app allows any teacher with access to just one tablet or smartphone the same benefits of an educator with access to a class set. Plickers makes use of quick response (QR) code technology to offer the same benefits as the apps listed above. Watch this classroom teacher exemplify how to use Plickers.
