Plickers
Plickers is a web app that enables teachers to assess student understanding quickly and without requiring extra devices or clickers. Students use paper response cards similar to QR codes that can be scanned in the app for instant feedback.

Summary
Plickers provides educators with a free account in which they can build classes, set up question sets, or ask questions in real time for student feedback. Teachers give students sheets with printed QR-style codes available on the Plickers site. Students hold their papers up to respond to a teacher-created multiple choice or true/false question. The teacher then scans the room with the camera from an ipad or mobile device equipped with the Plickers app. The answer results, which can then be used to give feedback or clear up any misconceptions, show up instantly on the app.
