Learning with iPad - "Ask Me Anything" - Give every student a voice by letting them ask questions anonymously in real time.

 

Context

Many students hesitate to speak up in class due to shyness, fear of being wrong, or social pressure. Using Pigeonhole Live, students can submit questions anonymously during lessons, ensuring all voices are heard and allowing the teacher to address misconceptions immediately. This fosters an open and inclusive learning environment while building a culture of curiosity.

Preparation and Flow

1. Set Up Pigeonhole Live

 

Create a session for your class and enable anonymous Q&A.

Share the access link or QR code with students.

 

2. Explain the Process

Tell students they can submit any question during the lesson, without attaching their name.

Encourage them to ask for clarifications, share ideas, or raise discussion points.

3. Live Use During Lesson

Keep the Pigeonhole Live Q&A screen open (on a projector or teacher iPad).

Pause periodically to review and answer questions.

 

4. Wrap-Up

Address unanswered questions at the end of class or in a follow-up post. 

This method works best when the teacher actively encourages use throughout the lesson, not just at the end. Regularly addressing questions in real time keeps students engaged and validates their contributions.

Possible Extension

Use polls to check understanding or gather opinions on a topic

Generate a word cloud from key ideas raised in class.
