Twiducate

Twiducate is the perfect solution for elementary and secondary students.
Rather than having your students sign up and enter an email address, you sign up  and create a class code.  Using this code, your students log in to your class network.  Here, they can answer questions, collaborate on problems, and even embed  pictures and videos. As a teacher you have full control over the network. You  can even add other teachers!
