Sign up for a free account and you will immediately be able to create fun, interactive, online quizzes for formative assessment in the classroom; it&#8217;s a great way of breaking up lectures and gauging student learning.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ve used this in a class with about 150 students and they were completely engaged. They use their mobile devices or laptops to answer quick quiz questions in a fun and engaging manner. Answers are recorded by simply clicking on the colour or shape (they&#8217;ve even catered for colour blind students) associated with the correct response. At the end, you can show the class the responses and discuss why incorrect answers were chosen. A great learning tool, accessed easily via kahoot.it and a game number provided by Kahoot once you have designed the question. You won&#8217;t look back!<\/p>\n<h5>More info: <em><a href=\"https:\/\/getkahoot.com\">Making Learning Awesome! &#8211; Kahoot!<\/a><\/em><\/h5>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you haven&#8217;t heard about Kahoot yet, then make sure [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[5],"tags":[15],"post_folder":[],"class_list":["post-58","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-designing-learning","tag-kahoot"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=58"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":549,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/58\/revisions\/549"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=58"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=58"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=58"},{"taxonomy":"post_folder","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.learningandteachinghub.com\/v1\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/post_folder?post=58"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
