Kahoot is a learning platform that is game based.
Teachers and students can create games and chose the number of questions. You can also add images and videos to build student engagement.
There are also a ton of kahoots that are already created that you can just search for and use in your classroom!
Players answer the questions on their own devices, while games are displayed on a shared screen to unite the lesson.
Teachers can use it as an exit slip, as a pre / post assessment task, as a way to check in with your students to ensure they understood the big idea from a lesson, homework assignment or rotation during your workshop.
Students can also use it...
"Social learning promotes discussion and pedagogical impact, whether players are in the same room or on the other side of the globe. After a game, encourage players to create and share their own kahoots to deepen understanding, mastery and purpose, as well as engage in peer-led discussions. When a learner becomes a leader, that’s a true magic moment!" (Kahoot.com).
Kahoot is free for educators but some of the features are only included in the paid memberships.
