On Friday (February 5, 2010), I first heard about this online tool from the network administrator. It seems that a teacher had requested that he unblock this site from our Internet filtering software, and wanted to know if I knew anything about it. This was the first I had learned of the site so I took a peek.
Wallwisher is "a notice board maker," according to the site. You can post announcements, keep notes, ask for suggestions, feedback, etc. Basically, you just post stuff on a web page. No registration is required. You can choose your own URL, and decide who can see your page (everyone or just you), post to your page (everyone or just you), and, if you allow anyone to post, approve their posts before they go public. There are also some options to customize the look and feel of your wall.
Of course there are a number of ways that I can think of to use this in the classroom. Here are 16 Interesting Ways to use Wallwisher in the Classroom
What other ways could you use Wallwisher in the classroom or professionally?
