the web poll tool
The Webpoll tool provides a means to develo0p Web pages with questions seeking student responses. As the students respond, they can see what others have responded with and can use the experience to reflect on alternative opinions and viewpoints. Teachers can use the Webpoll as a simple test instrument or a public opinion poll type activity.
