KAHOOT

KAHOOT

A Kahoot is a collection of questions on specific topics. Created by teachers, students, business-people and social users, they are asked in real-time, to an unlimited number of “players”, creating a social, fun and game-like learning environment. 

Currently, there are 3 types of Kahoot:

1. Quiz

This is the most common type of Kahoot, epitomising our game-based approach to blended learning. There is no limit to the number of questions in a quiz. Each question can have an associated picture or video, and 2 - 4 multiple choice answers. There must be at least one correct answer (but more can be chosen), and the time-limit for each question can be individually set from 5 seconds to 2 minutes.

2. Discussion 

Discussions are designed to do exactly what they say - facilitate a conversation. They are simply one quick question with no right or wrong answer, which can have an associated picture or video and 2 - 4 alternative answers. They should be used to gather opinions on current affairs, divisive topics, or even ask “what shall we do today?”.

3. Survey

There are no limits to the number of questions in a survey. Each question can have an associated picture or video, and 2 - 4 multiple choice answers - however there are no right or wrong answers. They are just like traditional surveys except questions are asked in real-time to those present who answer on their personal devices. The results of each question can be debated there-and-then, and all survey results can be downloaded at the end.
