Community reviews for Kahoot!

Students will be able to reflect upon their own learning to recognize their successes and needs. Teachers will be able to pin point a specific need from either their whole student body or areas that specific students are having difficulty with. The one area I didn't like about this tool is that it is timed. This may encourage students to answer quickly rather than taking the time to gather their thoughts or ideas before answering the question. Beware, it is also competitively driven. Students may fixate more on the scores rather than the content being taught.

I think it's great for assessing. I would not rely strictly on just using kahoot for a lesson, it is more for assessing or as an exit ticket.

I like the idea that my students will be able to see their answers right away and know where they stand and need to work on.

It's fun and they like it.

I love that Kahoot! gets my students excited about what we are learning. In both English and reading classes, most students are pumped when they walk into class and see Kahoot! is on the agenda for that day. It isn't often to see students really engaged in grammar practice, but the competitive piece Kahoot! brings to the classroom really gets some kids ready to participate. I also like that Kahoot! is a review activity that has every student involved in answering every single question. One piece that I believe is missing from Kahoot! is that I can't see how individual students performed on the activity at the end of the game. It would be really nice to be able to see each student's data to determine which students really need more instruction.

This is a super engaging app that can be used with any grade level with few modifications. I am able to easily incorporate technology in an engaging way that kids learn from!

Kahoot is an excellent interactive tool to make students more engaged in class. It gives the opportunity to teachers not only to build their own assessments, but also it offers a rich list of assessments done by other teachers. Kahoot helps teachers gain time by gathering data immediately after the assessment is over and start planning their lessons. Kahoot also makes students more interested in their learning and master it as it should be. In addition, they ask for using Kahoot in all their sessions. What I also love in Kahoot is the possibility to make students behavior much better and opportunity to create a positive and encouraging classroom learning atmosphere.

Student slove playing Kahoot. It is fun and motivating. I would use it for formative assessments. The time factor may stress some out and they may not do well under pressure. Also, only the top few scorers are shown on the screen. Some might feel defeated if they can not get a high score. Still, Kahoot is an awesome and fun way to review for a test or review concepts in a game like manner. Like I said, I would highly discourage using it for actual final assessments...only review.

I love this and I use it as much as possible. When creating a Kahoot, you make it your own. It could be 5 questions or 30. It's up to you, My kids are engaged and they can't wait to see if they got the answer right. I highly recommend this game.
