Type of Learning:
When using Kahoot in survey mode, it falls under the analyze and evaluate parts of Bloom’s Taxonomy. This is because students are given survey questions to complete and Kahoot collects their answers. These answers are then charted in a graph. Students can see in real-time how the class answered and teachers are able to see where the class’s answers fell. Based on the results, students and teachers can decide where students may need more support.
Type of Learning Experience:
When used in survey mode, Kahoot can offer students the ability to learn through visual symbols and exhibits. This is because, with the collected data from the survey, Kahoot creates graphs to depict the data. Students and teachers can then work on interpreting the data to identify where more support may be needed and how to make the most use of their time.
Integration Techniques:
One way that teachers can use survey mode on Kahoot is as a pre and post-assessment. For example, before starting a new unit, the teacher may ask their students about their comfort level/confidence in what they will be covering in the new unit. This gives students and teachers an idea of how everyone feels about the new unit. Then as the unit progresses, the teacher can have the students complete another check-in survey to see how they are feeling about the content. If there are areas where more support may be needed, teachers can offer additional support. Finally, at the end of the unit, the teacher can give the students another survey to see how their comfort level/confidence has grown. This could also serve as a chance for teachers to gain feedback from their students about the unit.
