I am teaching a technology integration course right now for teachers (and will be again in the spring if you work in Fairfax County, VA). One of my students, George Coe, found this new site which is similar to PollEverywhere.com. Both all teachers to pre-make questions and have the students answer questions using their cell phones and computers. So using Socrative or Polleverywhere.com, if a student has an ipad or a laptop, but no smart phone, then they can still take the quizzes. Now if a student has an ipad or a laptop, but no smart phone, then they can still take the quizzes. These are a great way to start or end a class and they also allow the teacher to instantly (either company) see what percentage of students selected each other for immediate feedback for the teacher.
This is a webpage written by high school teachers for those who teach US history who want to find online content as well as technology that you can use in the classroom.

2012 is great new year to start of with interesting careers and opportunities for every deserving individuals. I think through regulatory compliance training people could also benefit a lot from it by getting their online certification and training courses through it.
