Kahoot!
Fun, Engaging Formative Assessment Tool for the Classroom
What is a Kahoot!?
A website for creating online formative assessment, such as quizzes, discussion and surveys that allows students to interact in a game-like play. Students log into the game with a simple pin and answer timed questions. The faster they correctly answer questions, the higher the points they earn, and they are ranked after each question.
Super Simple!
Create or find a quiz, project it, have students log in, and play
