When you use with is students, have a set formula you want them to use, such as first name and last initial, to avoid inappropriate usernames. You as the owner of the quiz do have the ability to kick off accounts that aren't appropriate: http://blog.getkahoot.com/post/85217426087/how-to-kick-inappropriate-or-mischievous You can download the results from your kahoots to see how students responded, how long it took them to answer, and what their feedback was after the quiz. |

Today's Tech Time will start off with a round of Kahoot so you can see how engaging this responseware tool can be for your students. Simply enter the Game PIN that's up on the Promethean Board, create a username, and then we'll begin playing! For more tools to explore today, check last month's "ticket out" padlet where people left some tech tips, or read even further back on this blog to last year's Tech Times that have more ideas. And don't forget about Free Tech for Teachers--one of my favorite places to learn about new tech tools!
