Kahoot!
Create a fun learning game in minutes (kahoots), made from a series of multiple choice questions. Add videos, images and diagrams to your questions to amplify engagement!
Kahoots are best played in a group setting, like a classroom. Players answer on their own devices, while games are displayed on a shared screen to unite the lesson – creating a ‘campfire moment’ – encouraging players to look up.
Social learning promotes discussion and pedagogical impact… whether players are in the same room or on the other side of the globe! After a game, encourage players to create and share their own kahoots to deepen understanding, mastery and purpose.

Audri's Rube Goldberg Monster Trap
Often times, we associate failure with negative thoughts. If you fail a test, your grade goes down. If you die during a video game, you have failed and the game is over. When we start thinking about failure in a different way though, our mindset and experiences can change. If you think about fail to mean F=first A=attempt I=in L=learning, how does our learning change?
