In “Kahoots” With Student Engagement In The Classroom, Kim Nehls

UNLV Best Teaching Practices Expo

In a recent classroom survey, 95 percent of my students recommended additional use of Kahoot.

Kahoot is an exciting and fun way to utilize the cell phones and tablets already in play in the classroom.
