<p>Sbeck: </p> <hr /> <div>This is the interview I conducted with Ms. Jamie Pilgrim about the open-source educational tool called Kahoot. Kahoot is a game that can be played through one's tablet, phone, computer, or other electronic device, and the point of the software is to have a fun, interactive way for people to test their skills on a certain subject. Even though Kahoot is not a free/open source software, but it could be easily mistaken for one because it is a free app that one can download on their phone and is an educational tool that teachers all around the United States use. <br /> <br /> Q: How do you use Kahoot?<br /> <br /> A: As review for a large section of content that we have learned. It’s a fun, less stressful way to see where everyone is at with the material that’s been covered. If there are areas I see students where majority of the class didn’t know the answer, I know that’s a good part to have a more through review on.<br /> <br /> Q: How often do you use Kahoot in a classroom setting?<br /> <br /> A: I just started using it, but the first round was a great success. So I’m looking to make it a regular thing by having one at least once a month.<br /> <br /> Q: Is your experience using Kahoot generally positive or negative?<br /> <br /> A: Very positive. Even when students get something wrong I am impressed with how easily they can brush it off.<br /> <br /> Q: Are there any problems that you have encountered while using Kahoot?<br /> <br /> A: Figuring out the platform at first took some time and tinkering with, but overall it has been easy to create quizzes and have students participate.<br /> <br /> Q: If there are problems that you have encountered, what do you think could be the solutions?<br /> <br /> A: Perhaps a walkthrough on the features of the game, especially for first time game creators. I feel like I am still uncovering some of the really great features the site has to offer.<br /> <br /> Q: Does your class generally enjoy using Kahoot?<br /> A: Absolutely, it’s a huge success and I can better gauge where students are without having to have them sit though a quiz or test.</div>
