Supporting Collaboration in the ClassroomAbstractIn recent years, many applications have become available for supporting collaborationbetween students in a course. This presentation offers an overview of several of them, sothat new engineering educators can judge which they might be interested in adopting. All ofthe tools discussed are free for instructors and their students, at least at the entry level. Wefirst discuss applications (Twitter and Live Question) for sharing questions and answersamong students and between instructor and students during a class. For out-of-classquestions, the social-networking application Piazza is powerful and easy to use.PollEverywhere and ChimeIn are two applications that let the instructor send questions tothe
