Wiki Tool - Quibblo (Survey, Poll, and Quiz Website)

The Wiki tool that I chose to use was Quibblo (http://www.quibblo.com/).  Quibblo is a site where you can create surveys, polls, or quizzes - perfect for use in the classroom! The quizzes/surveys/polls can be shared with friends, and can also be posted to social networking sites such as Facebook, My Space, blog sites, etc.

When I saw Quibblo's description on our Wiki tools list, I immediately chose it because my Applied Econ class is in the process of getting ready to do a school-wide survey, and this is the perfect website to use for it!  We are working with Junior Achievement, and our class needs to come up with a product to sell to the students, but one that will actually SELL WELL -- and be profitable.  I have a VERY indecisive class, and they were split on which product to sell, so we decided we should do a little bit of 'market research' and survey the students in our school to see what their top choice of product would be.  It would be a short, simple survey, but this website is perfect to fit our needs!  Here is the survey that we would use:  http://www.quibblo.com/quiz/eoysnRo/Which-product-would-you-buy 

We would make an announcement over the loudspeaker to have students vote during the day by going to the survey site, which we would link to our school's home page for easy access.

I found Quibblo to be VERY user friendly!!  All you have to do is create a quick profile with name, email, and age -- there is no membership fee to use it.  I'd highly recommend it for polls and surveys!  (I didn't try out the Quiz feature)
