Megan Taber, a social studies teacher, uses a number of apps and Web-based programs during her lessons. As a daily warm-up, Taber asks students to answer some questions using a Google Form embedded on her website. "I can see my students' responses instantly in a spreadsheet, which allows me to monitor completing and comprehension of material in a way I couldn't before," Taber said. Taber also uses WorldWiki+, which takes information from the CIA Factbook website and organizes it in a way that is easier to navigate than the main website. The students use the site to look up demographic information on various South American countries.
