Check out Socrative. This new site (currently in testing) provides students (and teachers) a can access from any internet device. I’ve tried it with desktops, laptops, iPod touches, iPads, and smart phones. The process works from the web or an app. You can use their pre-made examples or create your own prompt or quiz. You get the results in real-time or in a downloadable spreadsheet. Great for exit tickets and taking the pulse of the group.

City of Materials is middle-high school based game site with a CSI theme. There are many activities and cases to solve. Student can login as guest- if they register, they will need a valid email address (it would not work with school accounts). You need the email to get the password (I guess you could have them use your email and then you would get the password information). (From Education Technology Guy)

Ecodazoo is an interesting site- part environment, in both English and Japanese, and with short popup books for each of the five critters. It doesn’t cover everything but would work well on a SMARTBoard (you can rotate the pages).
