My Take
There's thousands of quizzes already on the site, so don't create one. It already exists. My kids love to play this game, and they get to use their phones to submit their answers. I also ask the students to create a question for the class quiz, so students are creating their own classroom assessments.
How I Use It
Pure assessment. Students log into your quiz, and the class competes against each other right on the screen. The faster they answer, the more points they get for each answer. It displays the top scorers in the quiz, so the competition can get ugly. Having questions with too much text would be hard for ELL or struggling readers, so having visual aids to answer the question could level the playing field.

Not very helpfull without pro version
It is a good learning tool, very intuitive and easy to use. On the other hand, they constantly decrease the character limit or functionalities for free users. Overall, the app is not so financially inclusive for lower income students. Have a nice day

Engaging, interactive review
Kahoot! helps student practice fast-paced recall as they race to be the first to answer correctly, giving them points and pushing them higher up on the leaderboard. Kahoot! also forces teachers to manually move on to the next question, giving them a chance to discuss the question and/or take student questions. Additionally, Kahoot!'s leaderboard displays the top 5 players after each question, but does not expose the positions of students lower, and even provides an anonymous player option if teachers wish to use this feature. Kahoot! consistently provides an engaging form of learning and review for students.

Engaging way to review and study!
Kahoot is a brilliant platform for students, especially when reviewing a lesson learned or studying for a test. It essentially is an interactive group study session, where teachers and educators can personalize their own Kahoots to fit into their lesson plans. It's free, easy-to-use, and kids love it! As a middle schooler, we were introduced to Kahoot and I still think it's one of the best ways to review for a test in a fun, stress-free way--giving kids the opportunity to apply what they learned in a competitive game.
