** What is it? **
> media type="custom" key="26797948"
 * Kahoot is a game-based classroom response system that allows teachers to create and play quizzes, discussions and surveys (called Kahoots) using any device with a web browser. Kahoot questions can include embedded videos and images, and teachers can control the pace of Kahoot quizzes and surveys by adding a time limit (up to 30s) to each question. As students engage in the “kahoot,” they are awarded points based on correct answers and the timeliness of their answers. A leaderboard with the top 5 students is displayed after each question.
 * Consider playing this "intro quiz" to experience Kahoot! from the lens of a student.

**Don't Reinvent the Wheel!**

 * Leverage the **Learners to Learners** pedagogy and task your students with building their own Kahoot! games.
 * The diagram below illustrates this idea. //Students begin as "learners" and "players" of teacher-created Kahoot! games. Their role begins to transform as they "research" and "create" their own Kahoot! games focused on specific academic content. Students administer their games to the class; ultimately transitioning into a "teacher" / "leader" role.//
 * Discover 1000s of public Kahoot! games here. If you find one you want to use with students, simply click **Play** to begin!
 * __ Caveat __: You are unable to modify public games.
