CPD sessions for colleagues

Quizlet is easiest option to begin?
Ask for preparation of some terms and definitions from subject area before session. Like a matching quiz.
View site, they sign in with email.  Share email addresses.
Create quiz, talk through/demo process.
Save quiz, then email it to each other or pass round the url for quiz.
Could also use a padlet i make shown on iwb, to share quiz url with others. New browser window, type in padlet short url. They add a sticky linking to their quiz. Then all can try them out. 

Update:  Dec 2014
This worked well with colleagues from Early Years childcare, Supporting Teaching & Learning and Hair & Beauty.
All got on the site in minutes, found relevant material existing to investigate, copy & adapt, and made their own study sets.  They shared them and challenged each other with the Scatter game.
I heard afterwards that the ST&L students loved it, joined the site themselves, made their own study sets and shared them.  All while Ofsted were watching!
