Quizizz is a free platform offering access to tons of previously created learning quizzes. Users may also create their own quizzes. Once registered, teachers simply select a quiz, generate a code, and share that code with students. Students then access the quiz from their devices by logging in with the code and a nickname, and the game(so to speak) begins.
This app has been compared to Kahoot, with the difference being that Quizizz allows teacher and students access to questions, answers, and leader board on their individual devices. Another difference with Quizizz is the ability to extend the allowed time for students to answer questions. In addition to an engaging classroom activity, the app also features a Play Live and Homework option for students to use outside of school.
I found the app easy to use and relatively quick to access, especially if I chose a premade quiz. Teachers would love this app when they wanted a quieter competitive review. Students would definitely be engaged in the lesson and willing to try since their answers appear on their own device rather than on a screen for everyone to see. Below is a video tutorial for this exciting new app.
This is a great tool for both librarians and teachers. I like that as a librarian, you are looking for tools that can create an easy and more dynamic classroom experience for teachers and students. Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteI love Quizizz and if I am not mistaken we have looked at in the the past for AASL Best Websites for Teaching and Learning. It reminds me a great deal of Kahoot, FlipQuiz, Socrative, and Edueto. Some really nice selections of other quizzes, and I also like all of the options that Quizizz offers with seeing other quizzes and more. A great tool and a great share. Thanks so much.
