You already know Kahoot! as the fun and engaging quiz tool used by millions of people. Maybe you’re already using it in your classroom and your students love the quizzes, games, and the friendly competition that reinforces learning and makes formative assessment more fun. If you’re an administrator, you might have dozens or even hundreds of educators using it in your school or district or across your campus. You might even use it at home for family game night or trivia with friends. However, Kahoot is  so much more than simply a quiz tool and it’s changing educational experiences for learners of all ages and abilities. I’m excited to kick off this new “Level up learning” blog series, to share all the ways Kahoot! equips educators, schools, districts, and higher education institutions to support students and improve learning outcomes. Together, we can make learning awesome!

Teacher working with students in a classroom

Today, we’re starting this series with one of the hottest topics in education: AI. One of the most popular innovations at Kahoot! in the last few years has been our AI-enhanced content generation tools, with educators at all levels saving time and transforming teaching. 

By using Kahoot!’s AI-assisted creation tools, educators can harness the power of AI to boost their productivity while making their lessons more interactive and engaging. The Kahoot! AI creator enables educators to: 

  • Generate a kahoot from a topic, PDF, URL, or even a trusted Wikipedia article in seconds. 
  • Scan handwritten notes and transform them into kahoots instantly with AI. From there, educators have the option to refine and personalize their kahoots by editing, adding, and deleting questions and slides. 
  • Coming soon: generate images and import slides to create questions with AI. Later this year, educators will also be able to save time with the integration of Kahoot! and Microsoft’s new learning app on Copilot+ PC. This feature will enable teachers to effortlessly transform their lesson plans into interactive learning experiences that spark engagement.

PDF-to-kahoot AI generator

Teachers have called these tools a game-changer, allowing them to spend less time creating classroom activities and more time working with students:

“Imagine having a personal assistant that not only generates questions for you, but also tailors them to your specific topic and difficulty level. With just a few clicks and taps, I can have a whole kahoot ready to go! The best part of the Kahoot! AI generator is that its suggestions are always relevant and engaging, keeping my audience – my learners and even my trainees – hooked! This is my time saver and this is my creativity booster!” 

—Joseph ‘Gab’ Educado, Elementary teacher, Philippines

“AI tools in Kahoot! come to the rescue for you, because they save you time, help you to personalize lessons for students, quickly make exit tickets. I used to create kahoots from scratch. Now with the AI tools, I save so much time.” 

—Ashley Hatch, ELA and Social Studies teacher, Florida, USA

Elevating learning with Kahoot!’s AI tools for education

Many teachers and administrators are still grappling with how AI can be used in an effective and responsible way to support learning. Kahoot!’s AI tools are designed to help teachers boost students’ learning by creating more interactive and ‘minds-on’ experiences. 

Instead of using AI to simply find the answer, educators can use the Kahoot! AI generator to help create more and effective questions, challenging students to recall the information themselves. Students can create their own kahoots for self study or to present in class or study groups. By creating and presenting their own content, students engage in higher order thinking – analyzing, synthesizing, and creating – leading to greater retention and understanding of content. Additionally, these questions can serve as prompts for classroom discussion, sparking more active participation and deeper learning. With Kahoot!’s AI tools, teachers can enhance student engagement and learning outcomes with interactivity while also slashing prep time, making it a win-win for both students and educators.
