Simple and intuitive - no doubt made by a teacher for practical use in the classroom!

As I am a multigrade classroom teacher, the confusion barometer is a much needed function. By GoSoapBox including this feature in this app, I anticipate having functionality enabling me to pinpoint issues and assist students in both an effective and efficient manner.

Go SoapBox is an engaging tool to use with students to gather their understanding of a particular topic (through the quizzes or discussion option) and use as a formative assessment. Additionally, it can be used to introduce a unit. Teachers can use the polling feature to peak student interest in a new topic. I like that Go Soapbox allows participants to notify teachers when they are having issues or do not understand a particular item they are being asked to complete. Overall Go Soapbox is an effective tool to engage students, provide teachers with feedback and give students access to sharing their ideas and thoughts on certain concepts digitally.

This is my "go-to" student response tool. Its many features allow it to be used as a simple Q & A, quiz or survey but also allow teachers to deepen the experience by conducting open and moderated discussions. It's a great way to allow a student thinking time to respond when he/she is less comfortable verbalizing and raising his/her hand. As a teacher I find the ability to review student responses very helpful in determining how students are understanding the material and targeting their need for follow up instruction before an assessment. More options for multimedia for questions would be nice, as well as the ability to make the quiz competitive like other sites like Kahoot.it do, but overall I find it the most capable free student response tool out there.
