1st day--poll everywhere

I don't use my cell phone much, so at first this didn't seem too interesting. . . but my students do! I'm looking for ways to keep them involved in class, and they think cell phones are interesting, so this might work.

I use survey monkey in class, and they love the instant gratification of the results graphs--this would be the same for quicker, pulse-taking questions.

I might use this! My practice poll was http://www.polleverywhere.com/multiple_choice_polls/MTgwMzU5NDQzOQ

Go ahead and answer if you want to! It's kind of a rhetoric nerd's poll . . .
