Kids are using Instagram and Twitter in their daily lives outside of school, so why not let them use it for class studies too? This is just one example of many featured in this second episode of Infinite Thinking Machine, a Web TV show for teachers produced by Computer Using Educators (CUE), which shows how to use students' mobile devices in school. Examples like quick class polling to gauge student understanding using Poll Everywhere, Text the Mob and Wiffitti; creating instructional videos on sites like Educreations.

For this episode, CUE asked yours truly to do a segment on how educators use Google Chats and video conferencing, and you'll see some of those examples, as well. Check it out!

[Executive producers are Mike Lawrence (@techmaverick) and Chris Fitzgerald Walsh (@fitzwlsh)  and Ramsey Musallam (@rmusallam) is your host.]
