Challenge 14: Kahoot!

Challenge 14: Kahoot!

I really enjoyed making a quiz for my students. I created a quiz about real-life math mistakes based on pictures I found on the internet. I really liked Kahoot because it was easy to set up for me, and my students would be able to play from their phones or Ipads. It would also be good for students to compete against each other, possibly for prizes? 
Some things that I think would make this extra engaging:
  • embedding videos and pictures so my students don't need to read so much.
  • the fact that the students can see how each other are doing
  • it is fun, like a game.

I think that this would be great for PD with staff. It would also be great to use to support watching a video--students could watch for a couple of minutes, and then have to answer questions to make sure they are getting what is going on in the video, and paying attention. Super cool site!

Welcome!


This blog is the shared space for anyone participating in the PPS EdTech Summer Camp! Through a series of creative challenges, you will build your own knowledge and skill in using technology to create and share. Each challenge asks you to share on this group blog and include a brief reflection. What does that mean? 

The reflection should capture your experience and your thinking about the challenge and the tool you explored. Here are some questions to guide you as you write your blog posts:
  • What did you create, and why? 
  • What went well for you?
  • What was challenging?
  • What did you enjoy? 
  • What ideas do you have for using this tool with your students, or for using this tool to communicate with families? 
You don’t have to answer all of these questions, but hopefully, they'll help you get started!
