Educators and students can create their own Kahoots and share them with others. To create a Kahoot, the user must create an account. Users seeking to participate in existing Kahoots do not need to create an account.<\/p>\n<p>There are three types of Kahoots\u2013 quizzes, jumbles, and surveys. Quizzes are competitive and allow players to choose one correct answer from multiple answers. Jumbles are competitive and allow players to drag answers in the correct order. Surveys are informative and allow players to indicate their opinion. At the time of this review, users can only create Kahoot quizzes on the app, while all three types of Kahoots can be created using the website.<\/p>\n<p>Kahoot! offers creators two ways to issue their Kahoots, challenges or live games. Live games are completed synchronously. The creator of the Kahoot activates it on their device and shares a \u201cGame Pin.\u201d The Kahoot creator has discretion to specify the settings of their live game, such as enabling an automatic name generator, randomizing the order of questions, and automatically or manually moving through questions.<\/p>\n<p>On live games, players can play on teams, sharing devices, or play one-on-one. Players type the Game Pin into their app or use the website and provide a nickname.\u00a0 When the game begins, all questions appear on the creator\u2019s screen, and players submit their answers on their own screen. After all players have submitted their answers, Kahoot shows the number of individuals who chose each answer.<\/p>\n<p>Challenge Kahoots are asynchronous and can stay open for an assigned time period. Kahoot creators can share challenges many ways including a Game Pin, email, messaging or on connected apps. After a player has completed the challenge, they appear on a leaderboard ranked in relation to other players. Kahoot creators have less discretion to change specific games settings under challenges.<\/p>\n<p>Most Kahoot! features are free for educators and students, but some additional features can be purchased. \u00a0Paid versions allow for a larger number of Kahoot participants and provide Kahoot reports, greater organizational capacity, and the ability to work on \u201cKahoots\u201d with other educators.<\/p>\n<p>Kahoot! has an additional \u201cDiscover\u201d feature which allows all users to explore public Kahoots. The Discover feature organizes Kahoots into categories such as history, math, trivia, earth and space, climate change, etc.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Practice Implications: <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>Educators could use Kahoot! in class to quiz students on a number of issues including\u2013 ethical issues, best practices, or even clinical diagnoses. Faculty could use Kahoot! to review student understanding of materials and provide feedback in the class setting. Team-based live games could spark collaboration and teamwork as students try to solve problems together. Educators could also create assignments where students need to incorporate Kahoot! into presentations. Finally, challenges could be used in online classes or to provoke continued thinking outside of seated classes.<\/p>\n<h3><strong>Privacy Policy: <\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>User data is shared with third party hosts.
