“I’ve noticed that my Kahoot! profile has been steadily growing over the past couple of years,” Karin said. “Initially, I would only play with my students, but soon enough, I had over a hundred people playing with my content. Before I knew it, that number grew to over a thousand, and now I’m amazed to see that I could reach over 10,000 players this year. It’s been a journey, but it’s incredible to see how it’s taken off lately.”

 

Karin’s unwavering commitment to meeting her students’ unique learning needs and desired outcomes truly sets her apart. She understands that traditional teaching methods alone may not be sufficient to keep students engaged and motivated in the long run. Thus, she has incorporated Kahoot! into her teaching approach to make learning more enjoyable, interactive, and effective.

“I have noticed that many students have a keen interest in video games and competition. This is why I think Kahoot! is the perfect tool to use in the classroom. My students always ask for Kahoot! at the end of each topic so they can reinforce their learning. I find that using Kahoot! is an effective way to build, reinforce, and assess learning.”
