If you use Kahoot! or Poll Everywhere, you might want to check out this new multiplayer classroom activity! It is known as Quizizz. Quizizz is a free resources that allows you to create quizzes for your classroom or use the millions of questions other educators have shared. It works on any device, so if your school is a BYOD school, this will be great for you. You can make your quizzes public or private. Check out the video to get a quick overview of how it works. There are more videos on YouTube that demonstrate the process of playing a game and creating your own quiz.
I would love to hear your thoughts on this new classroom activity!
I have never heard of this. Thank you for sharing.
ReplyDeleteYou're welcome!
DeleteI had not heard of this either, but it looks great. Thank you for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI thought this looked like a great resource for my students.
DeleteIt looks like it's a lot of fun, as well as user-friendly. As a whole, my students LOVE games/competitions in class. (I usually put them in groups to accommodate the less-competitive students in the room.) It's one of my favorite ways to review and I build time in at the end to go over the questions more than a couple of students missed. Thanks for posting this.
ReplyDeleteThis may be a resource you could use to review your material. I bet your students would enjoy this type of review. You could still group your students while using Quizizz.
DeleteI've been hearing a lot about this lately and appreciated the short video that explained it. I love that students work at their own pace and can review incorrect answers. I wish it looked a bit more different from Kahoot, just for the sake of it not appearing to "copy," but I can definitely see uses for both platforms in the classroom.
ReplyDeleteThat's interesting that you have heard of Quizizz. Where have you heard about Quizizz? I am just curious because I stumbled on to it.
DeleteDanielle - Thanks for sharing more info about this resource!
ReplyDeleteI have used a couple of programs similar to this but they required the app. I like that this would work with any BYOD device. The video was nice and clear. Just the way I like it. I am off to try it out. Thanks A
ReplyDeleteLet me know your feelings about it after trying it out.
