Using Quiz apps like Kahoot

​

The basic structure of a Blind kahoot: 

  • Introduce the game to let learners know what to expect, and that it's about learning, not about getting all of the answers right the first time.

  • Use a "Blind" question (a question about something completely new to them) to spark curiosity, so learners are more receptive to the explanation.

  • Explain the answer

  • Reinforce using a series of questions focused solely on what they have just learned

  • Another Blind question prompts learners to actively listen to the explanation - this is a great opportunity to teach subtleties, exceptions to the rule or to build on what they have just learned

  • Reinforce with another series of questions solely about the most recent Blind question

  • Now use Compound Reinforcement to help learners consolidate everything they have learned in the whole kahoot
