__Description of Presentation__

Student response systems are a very quick and easy way to survey the student's knowledge without setting up a formal assessment.
 * //Activotes//** are a Promethean Product, but the ideas presented can be utilized for any student response system.

The actvistudio flipchart goes through the brainstorming techniques.... specifically using the idea of a "footprint"... literal versus figurative definitions. Focus is on Lord of the Flies. Which characters leave the "biggest footprint?"

Activote session on Digital Footprint to learn how to use the activote response system is included. Uses common Web 2.0 logos to survey audience usage.

Connect the Digital footprint impression that students leave to the footprints that the Lord of the Flies characters... What happens if we choose not to leave a digitial footprint? What happened to the characters that had little footprints?
