Description
Even after the pandemic ends, some of the technology that we have been exploring for remote instruction will also prove useful in the classroom. I am going to highlight the use of Kahoot, which is like an interactive, graded PowerPoint. I’ll go over how and why to use Kahoot, and hopefully include ideas that will also benefit current Kahoot users. In this session, we will use Kahoot to explore 3 physics demonstrations, where you will have to predict or explain what is happening. (I’ll also provide information on how to do them yourself later.) This Kahoot will also test your knowledge of practical applications of physics. I encourage you to either download the Kahoot app for your cell phone in advance, or you can take our Kahoot quiz on a different tab on your computer set to “Kahoot.it”. We’ll keep score, but we’ll be using Random names, so you can vote without fear of embarrassment. The 20 question Kahoot quiz will be also available for you to challenge your colleagues or students.
