Kahoot Video Tutorial

Educational technology has provided the opportunity to use a variety of different

programs in the classroom. One of the easiest ways to introduce new technology to students is by

utilizing something that is fun and engaging. Kahoot is a program that allows both educators and

students to create games, quizzes, or polls to work on their knowledge of any topic. In this

tutorial, you will learn how to create a Kahoot account. Once a Kahoot account is created, you

will have access to the large assortment of Kahoots made by others as well as the opportunity to

use your data to create your Kahoot. After making your Kahoot or choosing a premade option,

you will learn how to allow students to play the Kahoots in the classroom for maximum

engagement.

Kahoot is a valuable tool to share in education because it offers many possibilities for the

classroom. Creating formative assessments to check for student understanding or creating games

to help students prepare for summative assessments are just some of the many options. Students

can also take ownership of their learning by creating Kahoots of their own and sharing them with

the class. Kahoot makes something as simple as a warm up discussion or a poll about classroom

choices more fun and engaging. I chose to share this tool using Screencast-o-matic because of

the interactive nature of both programs. Screencast-O-matic allows the presenter to share their

screen while also sharing video to describe what is happening on screen. Kahoot allows the

teacher to control the questions being asked to students while still having a fun engaging

experience allowing students to use their own devices.
