So, I know this is not directly related to technology in the classroom (perhaps), but I have started us out in the office of admissions at SMCM with a new technology. I am quite proud of this, mostly because we are on the "cutting" edge and one of the first schools to jump into this new technology. www.formspring.me
Basically it is a site in which people (in our case students) are able to ask questions. Any question they ask is anonymous until I decide to acknowledge and answer the question. It's great for us, because those questions that a lot of students are too embarrassed to ask, now they ask.
I definitely feel like it could be incorporated into the classroom. Perhaps a teacher can use it for students to ask class questions fro home. You get the idea. Check out my page for work here: http://www.formspring.me/smcmadmit
