“What did he just say?” “Where in the reading was that?” “This seems related to what she mentioned last week.” Back channels has always existed but, up until recently, it was solely a one-to-one whispered communication with a neighbor. Today, it’s possible to have an exchange many-to-many, among the entire class.

During this half hour session, you will see an overview of some tools you might use to leverage, follow, and organize incoming feedback from students as you consider ways you might exploit this emerging method of class interaction.
