Kahoot is a tool for students to be interactive and participate in a quiz like game. Teachers can search for games to play with their class or create their own interactive game for students. I gave this tool a 23 out of 30 because it could use a few more ways to accommodate for all learners such as, adding audio options to read answers and it is also hard for younger students to type in the code for Kahoot and read the questions and answers without guidance. Also, there is no ability to track student learning by recording student answers and who submitted which answer. Kahoot is only available in website form and not available in an app form. With a few changes this tool could really be a useful and effective tool in the classroom for all ages. In upper elementary and high school Kahoot is an engaging tool for students!
