Kahoot is a fun way to review material and create competition.
I wish it had more grading options and easier ways to create new kahoots
Easy and cheap way to make education fun.
I love their innovative and colorful platform. Kahoot! is valuable because it merges education and communication with fun through a digital platform. I enjoy using it and so do my students.
There are some limitations in game creation that feel like road blocks. I think they should create more freedom for the user to build their own Kahoot! Interactive experience online.
Kahoot! was a fun way to conduct assesment without the students getting survey fatigue. We were being advised to gain more assesment data for our programs and usage of space. Instead of drowning the students in rate 1-10 surveys we had fun playing games I had created with intention.
Kahoot is awesome. It's easy to use, quick to make a quiz, and people really enjoy using it. It's fun to use in presentations for interaction.
Not a whole lot. I think the interface could be a little bit smoother. Perhaps different choices in music. And also more options, as once you've done them a few times, it gets a bit old for the audience.
It allows interaction and engagement in presentations where otherwise people would just be starting at a powerpoint presentation. It goes over well in presentations and classrooms.
Kahoot! is very easy and quick to use. I like that I can search for and use pre-made Kahoot! games or create my own.
What I dislike the most is the lack of filters to search for games that are relevant to what I am teaching.
Kahoot! has created additional review opportunities for students and helped save me time as a teacher.
Kahoot is a fun and engaging to use in an educational setting. The students love to compete!
Having an electronic device for each student is sometimes a challenge.
I use Kahoot as a survey tool or as a review tool in my English classroom. Students get excited to do something different. I am seeing engagement with Kahoot!
I love it that kahoot can cover a wide variety of topics. As a school counselor, this game helps engage students while teaching desired material.
I dislike that students must have an electronic device- sometimes the devices malfunction and the student will get logged out.
This keeps students engaged and helps me meet my teaching goals as a counselor.
I love how easy it is for college students to be engaged. When I have participated or administered quizzes, everyone is so much more involved. People love these quizzes!
Sometimes students can't connect or the connection is slow. However, these issues are really minimal.
Students are much more involved when we use Kahoot. This is great for the program!
Very easy app interface to learn and use. Most students are able to get the app or simply go on a browser. Don’t experience many issues with connecting.
Would like to see some more pre made quizzes from experienced educators that are “verified.” Not just standard users.
It’s just a great tool for teaching and students love it. A helpful review guide and study tool.
Kids love it and have a ton of fun but are learning a ton.
I wish I could type longer answers because I often end up cutting them off.
I wish I could type longer answers and the benefits are that kids are reviewing while having fun.
I like that it gives students time to read the question and pick the correct answer. You are also able to have multiple choice questions to up the 4 answers. I also like how you are able to set it so that there is a possibility of having two correct answers. It makes my job really easy for personality development quizzes.
Sometimes it takes too long to load or freezes on the device which defeats the purpose of a quiz, and it's no use at that time. Also, students are only able to see the symbols rather than the real options when answering making it difficult for them to answer correctly.
I use it at TCU career development center to help students with personality development questions and help them in their career or choosing their majors.
I like that Kahoot allows me to essentially quiz my students and get immediate feedback on how well they are doing on a particular concept. The students like it best because it feels like a game and appeals to their competitive side.
I dislike the connectivity issues we sometimes experience. Whether on wifi or on data, students occasionally have trouble with the app and website going too slow and they miss out on answering their question, or they are penalized by the time.
Kahoot is great for both allowing me to create my own games and for the ability to search what others have created as well. I had a review lesson planned one day but my students begged for kahoot and said how much they feel like they learn when we play that way. So, I searched on the spot for a kahoot on our topic.
Kids love it and they get really into the activities. it is great to use as a formative assessment or for a review. grading is easy and creating quizzes is easy
there is nothing about kahoot that i dislike
i am helping kids to become more engaged in the lessons and learn information in a competitive and fun way
It's a very fun and interactive way to learn/play games and be involved
Sometimes the pages hang and the responses take a while to go
I use it in a lot of meetings and SI sessions
I like the fact that you don't need any app or any extra software to take a kahoot quiz. It's so easy and fun.
I don't like the fact that occasionally some random person who's isn't supposed to be a participant joins the game with a vulgar name.
Quiz, fun, ice-breakers.
Kahoot keeps students engaged at higher rates for longer times.
It takes a long time to create a new game for students to play.
Student engagement.
I love how interactive Kahoot is. Whenever my students complete a Kahoot, I know exactly what skills we still need to work on before an assessment.
Honestly, nothing. My students LOVE this program!
None. This is used within the classroom.
I love Kahoot because it gets students involved and engaged easily. Whereas students are oftentimes quizzed in a boring and mundane manner, Kahoot engages them in a lively way to help retain information.
I wish their was a way to sync it with Google Docs or Google sheets, although that might be a feature that is coming soon.
Instead of dreading test prep or recitation days, they get excited because they know they'll get to play with Kahoot. Although I've seen it used with younger students, my college students really responded to Kahoot's methods too.
Kahoot! is simple to use, and a great, engaging assessment tool. Students love playing and there are THOUSANDS of public quizzes already created that you can easily accommodate for your needs. It can be used as a quick, informal assessment to let you see where your kids are, and they love the competition style format. I often reward the winners with late work passes, etc. as an added bonus.
No complaints! It has a very user friendly interface!
I use this to assess student's knowledge and it keeps them engaged.
The students at school LOVE playing games on Kahoot! It is really interactive & fun! It is a great tool for whole-class collaborative learning!
It takes a lot of time to build Kahoot games. However, searching for ones that are already created helps to ease this obstacle.
We are trying to find games that are interactive, educational, and engaging to students.
You get feedback for students on each question. You can make your ka hoot public so other people can use it as well.
It would be great if there were a copy/paste option for images rather than having to upload them.
My students are more engaged.
