KAHOOT IN EDUCATION IS A BIG DEAL
Kahoot is an awesome program that I have used a few
times in the past year. I have made
several games and just made a real quick math one to quiz my son and daughter
in their math facts and they love it. I
used it at the beginning of the year not for students but for a staff
professional development on PBIS. I was
tired of PowerPoint presentations, so I presented PBIS real fast and then gave
the staff a quiz. It was probably the
best PD I ever did and I had the staff’s attention. Then the staff wanted a PD on Kahoot because
they found it so much fun. I thought
about using this program for actual quizzes as it was suggested in the video,
but I see it more as a fun toy than something I want to use for a graded quiz. For graded quizzes I would still use Edmodo
or Google forms with Flabaroo. Kahoot
has its place to make learning more exciting, but not for tests and quizzes as
the kids are too excited when playing Kahoots.
