I have also used wikis. I set up a class wiki and then I have each team set up a team wiki. This way students can post their response on the wiki and then each team can view each others response. I can even have students go back and review responses and post discussions after class. You just have to make sure that one person from the group brings their laptop, which is usually not a problem.

Subject: texting responses?
Hi all,
I've been pondering how to have groups simultaneously report responses
to open-ended application questions. My class will be 75 students (13
groups) and the classroom is much longer than it is wide. I was
considering having students use whiteboards but depending on how the
teams move their desks around, I'm not sure how easy it will be for
everyone to see everyone else's answer. I am hoping there will be at
least one laptop in each group but wifi in the building is sometimes
iffy (gotta love old state schools). It just dawned on me that if I
use Twitter or some other service that allows students to text to a
website, I could show their responses with the computer projector (and
the 160 character limit might actually be a good thing for keeping
students, and myself, focused on a specific choices). Has anyone had
students text their group responses in? Any suggestions on sites that
would allow this, other than Twitter? I've always been a bit hesitant
to do this in the past because I didn't want to require students be
able to text (or have to pay for it) but these days, I can't imagine
there won't be at least one person in each group who has unlimited
texting on their phone. Thoughts?
thanks!
Jennifer

We have also used googledocs and had 24 groups filling in their table cell simultaneously...then we display and discuss.....allows a bit of rationale explanation along with specific choice

Jennifer,
Like your idea :) Having remote video conference sites geographically
counties apart, I have had to devise a way to do this to report group
results. Having similar uneven pc and connection access across the
sites, I have done the lowest common denominator of just having each
team text my cell phone. Then I hand enter each team's response onto a
powerpoint slide"offline" of the video signal I am sending out. When
ready, I switch over to my powerpoint. Not too slick but functional :D
But you may have finally given me a reason to look at becoming a
tweeter.

I have used polleverywhere.com on many occasions with good results. I have
smaller classes, so I can use a package that is free. With your class size,
you might need one of the subscription packages.
