Engage with Kahoot!
Kahoot! PLC at Leeward CC (Spring 2023)
Kahoot! PLC
The Educational Media Center (EMC) is here to support your use of educational technologies for teaching and learning. We have an exciting, new professional development opportunity starting in Spring 2023. The EMC Educational Technology unit is partnering with Kelly Kennedy, Instructor of ESL, to co-facilitate a Professional Learning Community (PLC) around an educational technology tool.
This Spring 2023, we are creating a PLC around Kahoot!. Whether you're teaching or conducting meetings or trainings in-person, hybrid, online sync or async, Kahoot! can be used to turn your lectures, meetings, and trainings into fun, immersive learning experiences.
What is a PLC?
A PLC is a Professional Learning Community. Our goal is to build a collaborative learning environment amongst employees at Leeward CC around a shared interest where we can support one another in implementing an educational technology for teaching, learning, and other work-related purposes.
What is Kahoot!?
Kahoot! is an online game-based learning platform technology that engages your audience to answer questions, test their knowledge, and allows you to facilitate discussions in a collaborative and competitive way. You can create Kahoot! games, quizzes, or polls for your in-person, hybrid, or online courses, or gamify workplace trainings or meetings.
Kahoot! PLC Objectives
- Apply Kahoot! to a real-world teaching or work setting
- Plan and implement at least 2 Kahoots! into your course(s) or workplace
- Network and share ideas with colleagues
- Attend and participate in PLC sessions during Spring 2023 (TBD)
- Evaluate the impact of using Kahoot! in your course(s) or workplace
Who is this for?
This opportunity is open to Leeward CC employees who are interested in using Kahoot! to enhance engagement and interactivity in their classes or workplace in any modality. Whether you are new to Kahoot! or experienced, if you are looking for a group of colleagues to share ideas with, learn from, and support you through planning and using Kahoot!, this PLC is for you! As a committed member of the PLC, you will also get a free, licensed version of Kahoot! for a year. Interested participants will be asked to submit a registration form to be considered for joining the PLC.
