Try the Sceenius Clicker for Instant Feedback During Classroom Discussions

Thanks to +Oli Trussell for sharing this simple yet powerful tool on Google+. The Sceenius Clicker, originally shared by +Joachim Stroh, is meant to provide instant feedback and improve the effectiveness of office meetings, but Oli had the brilliant idea of applying this tool to classroom discussions. You could even use it during workshops or conference presentations!
