Was introduced to the site corkboard.me at a class last week and wanted to explore it further. Very interesting. If the corkboardme with specific URL is brought up on the smart board, and students had the specific URL open on their pcs then they could create a sticky note and add their comment to the mix and evyone would be able to see it instantaneously. Which is a really nice feature. The notes can change color, or be moved around the corkboard plus anyone can type on any of the sticky notes. A couple of ideas flash in my head for this... A get to know you kind of activity if a student starts a sticky then puts their name on it. Classmates could type something about that person or something want to know about them on that sticky.
You could do a reader response question in the center and each student could type their response on a new sticky note. You could have students type one word on a sticky and move them around like magnetic poetry. Lots of ingesting ideas float to mind here. Can't wait to try it out with a class or two.
