How Kahoot! can help you connect with students in any learning environment

Host kahoots live over video conferencing

Play a live game of Kahoot! with students joining from home. Share your screen with an online video conferencing tool (Zoom, Google Meet, Microsoft Teams, Skype and others) to facilitate this. If your students only have one device at home, you can choose to display questions and answers on their devices in live kahoots.

Assign student-paced games that can be played anywhere

Extend learning beyond live games and encourage accuracy over speed with student-paced games in challenge mode. You can even turn off the timer if you’d like! Students play at home at their own pace with questions and answers on their screens, while a teacher sees their progress in real time. Many teachers find this way to play Kahoot! helpful for content review, exam prep, and homework assignments.

Encourage students to create their own kahoots

Another powerful way to engage students at home is to encourage them to create their own kahoots based on learning content and host it live or assign as a challenge. This is a powerful activity for project-based learning that helps students develop from learners to leaders.

Assess learning, from pulse-checks to formative assessment

Run pulse-checks with quiz, polls and other questions to collect valuable student feedback. For example, pre-assess knowledge, or find out how students are feeling in general. Kahoot!’s visual reports on live games and challenges will help you with formative assessment: see how the class performed, identify difficult questions that need followup, and reinforce learning.
