Learning Object: Kahoot!

Kahoot is a free game-based learning platform that makes learning fun for any subject, in any language and on any device. Kahoot is best played in a group setting, such as a classroom. The teacher can create a quiz, survey or poll that the class can answer to on their own computers, i-pads or even their very own phones. The game is displayed on one big screen as it unites the class together creating a "camp fire" environment where students can play individually or in teams. Essentially, everyone is facing each other. Kahoot is a very engaging and interactive tool to use in the classroom because it requires concentration, thinking on the spot, discussion and energy. It's pretty much a fun quiz! It is a very simple tool to use as it entails you to create questions and possible answers. The only concern I would have with Kahoot is the devices students can use. Phones can present possible issues in class sometimes, so it really depends on your students. Computers and I-Pads can be used and shared between students for another option if the school has the available for use.
