Libguide on lesson planning & Poll Everywhere

There is a nice Libguide on lesson planning resources for trainee teachers at http://libguides.geneseo.edu/content.php?pid=82567&sid=619491 from Michelle Costello, Milne Library, State University of New York. This was mentioned by her in the context of an ili-l discussion about using Poll Everywhere as a tool in information literacy sessions; she uses it on this site to get ideas (not, in this case, about information literacy). The majority of people in the ili-l discussion felt that using Poll Everywhere was better than using "clickers" (personal response devices), but that you couldn't assume that all students had mobile phones, so you needed to enable those without mobiles to access the poll in other ways.
