Technology Spotlight: Quizizz


Quizizz is an online, free gamified quiz platform that can be used from anywhere. My favorite thing is that the quizzes are student-paced, so while it is a competition, students can still work at their own pace. The questions will show up on each student's screen.

You can search from tons of quizzes that are already created or choose to create your own quiz with your own questions or pull the questions from those quizzes that have already been created. There are 5 question types: multiple choice, check box, fill in the blank, poll, and open ended. The poll and open ended are not graded, but are a great check-in or exit ticket type of question where students can share their opinions, give explanations, or tell you how they are feeling.

Once students are taking a quiz, you can see a very detailed report section in your teacher dashboard live as they are taking it or view it afterwards once they have finished.

This is a great tool for quick, informative assessments, especially during this upcoming school year where you may be teaching virtually, in small groups, or socially distanced in your classroom.

I put this presentation together for my school and thought I would share it with you all.
