Why Teachers are Using Quizizz
Quizizz: An Engaging Assessment Tool
Quizizz: An Engaging Assessment Tool
Quizizz is an online tool that is simple to use for both educators and students. Teachers can easily create lessons and formative assessments on Quizizz, as well as organize their classes and group their content into collections.
Quizizz can help teachers follow the Universal Design for Learning by boosting student engagement because the tool is more interesting than a typical paper assessment, and students stay anonymous while playing a quiz. The anonymity of Quizizz can ease anxiety for students.
Quizizz is game based and therefore a fun way for students to learn and to be assessed. Students can easily access the quizzes through a shared link that only the class can access. Some tools can seem overly complicated and yield difficulties for students, especially younger students, but Quizizz has a simple setup that is easy for students to navigate.
Quizizz Features
Lessons
One of the main features on Quizizz is creating lessons. The site offers a library of templates to create new slideshows as well as pre-made presentations that can be edited to one's liking. The selection of templates and editing capabilities are limited, but this helps keep the lessons simple if that is what you desire. Simplicity can keep students focused and limit distractions.
Assessments
Quizizz is a fun way to assess students' understanding. As with lessons, Quizizz offers a library of pre-made quizzes that can be edited based on what the teacher wants to assess. Teachers can also create brand new assessments. The tool offers a variety of question types such as multiple choice, short answer, drawing responses, and polls. Teachers can easily access a report of analytics on student performance on the quizzes.
Classes
Another helpful feature of Quizizz is the ability to organize material into classes and into folders based on content.
Teachers can import existing classes from Google Classroom or create a class directly in Quizizz.
