1. Do some research & planning up front

Without a doubt, the best way to make sure that your kahoot has the right impact on learners is to do a bit of planning! Before even jumping online, most of our Top Kahoot!’ers take a bit of time to make notes about the learning game, how it will be played, and the learners themselves. Aside from researching the questions and answers, here are some things you might want to think about:

• ٠ Why are you making the kahoot?
• ٠ What do you hope the outcome will be?
• ٠ What do the learners already know?
• ٠ How do they learn best?
• ٠ How might you make it accessible to all types of learners?
• ٠ How might you give everyone who plays this game a chance to feel success?
• ٠ Where is it likely to be played?
• ٠ Do you need to build in breathing space for discussion, debate or other activities between questions?
• ٠ Are you intending to open it up to the public? How would you make sure it’s found and enjoyed by the people who need it most?

• 2. Ask the right questions

Kahoot! in Education

Kahoot! is some part very educational-based and keeps refine it from education point of view. It now has new functions which is the Jumble mode and to assign Kahoots as homework! I just can't wait to practise this with my students.

Drilling is one of the most important process for language learning but it can easily bore students. I think Kahoot! makes drilling in language learning fun.
