I like Quizziz best because when you play it live, students are less noisy than with Kahoot. And the Quizizz reports are easy to read and consult.

[@CharliesLessons]

Yes I like the Quizizz reports too. But sometimes I like noisy students 😂😂

[@letrongtai.]

Chính xác! Với học sinh tiểu học thì Kahoot làm lớp học quá náo nhiệt đến mức không tưởng.

[@CharliesLessons]

Do you agree with my choice?

[@sbrennan8680]

Hi Charlie, that was interesting, thank you! I haven't used Kahoot at all but it looks like it has some worthwhile features. I used Quizizz last year in online 1:1 lessons with adult learners for grammar and figurative language. I've been using it this year with third level students (online) as part of syntax tutorials on lexical and phrasal categories. The students really love it as it's something a bit different. I also post links to extra quizzes on the LMS for optional extra practice.

[@CharliesLessons]

Which LMS are you using?

[@sbrennan8680]

@@CharliesLessons Blackboard. However, I am using Zoom to deliver my classes.

[@HakimJamil94]

Somehow many of my friends (we're in Malaysia), are more familiar with Kahoot! This familiarity bars many of them from even trying out Quizziz.

[@CharliesLessons]

Most of my students don't want to play anything else! They all say quizizz and Blooket are cheap imitations.

[@nosisagagai262]

Hey Charlie. Thank you so much for this video- it’s very informative especially for teachers like us who work in schools that do not invest much in technology for teaching .

[@CharliesLessons]

It's great to read comments like these. Really makes my day! 😍😍

[@simonpearlman352]

Great stuff, Charlie, I'm looking forward to more! :)

[@CharliesLessons]

Awesome, thank you!

[@بطاطا-مقلي]

I have account of both :) i prefer Kahoot!

[@CharliesLessons]

Yes they are both great platforms. I do still prefer Quizizz though.

[@lindas1250]

It seems that the free version of Quizizz only allows you to save a few quizizz, not unlimited as is the case with Kahoot's free version?

[@CharliesLessons]

I will need to make another video I think!! So much has changed especially with the new AI features.

[@markknight9004]

I think currently Quizizz is much better

[@theIdeaSensei]

Great review. Just what I was looking for. Thanks!

[@CharliesLessons]

Glad I could help you decide.

[@nosisagagai262]

Charlie, I have a question. I work in a bilingual school, all my students are ELL. I want to use quizzizz but non of my students have iPads/ or let me say, the ones they have are kept at home ( they’re not for school use). Long story short… how do I use quizzizz in the classroom without having participants to play the quiz. I once tried with kahoot but it’s become boring and not as interactive as I wanted because I had to click the answers myself since my students cannot use their own devices to answer. I teach PreK , they’re 4 years old.

[@CharliesLessons]

I'm afraid without tablets or mobiles, quizizz and kahoot will have to be led by the teacher. A great platform to maintain interaction but with younger students is Plickers. Students use QR codes to show their answers and you scan them with your phone.

[@nosisagagai262]

@@CharliesLessons thanks a lot for your response , I just saw it now. The problem is that my students do not use any kind of device or technology in school. The only thing I have as technology is my laptop and the classroom white board. Any other suggestions for apps I could use for quizzes, drag and drop, MCQ’s and all those kind of formative assessments? I am tired of using google slides for MCQ, blocks game and drag and drop. It’s been boring for my students because that’s the only thing they do.

[@nosisagagai262]

@@CharliesLessons Also, I want a basic plan because my school won’t even pay a cent for this. They’re always under budget.

[@CharliesLessons]

Hey there again, have you been watching my series on websites English teachers should know? I try to include only free websites. Also, I just did a tutorial on Wordwall which doesn't need your students to have devices kzbin.info/www/bejne/apnPg5araJugncU. You can play all the games on your laptop.

[@NgaNguyenPhuongPurpleCh.]

Now, you can use paper mode with your class

[@sfx387]

I liked the walk through, but in the end you didn't justify your answer for why you picked Quizizz. Still, I appreciate the walk through of both options.

[@CharliesLessons]

It was my very first video so there's a lot to improve.

[@jia2001]

Kahoot is by far much better.

[@KalimWahedally]

im new to both platform.I teach Arabic. I don't know which one is better?

[@CharliesLessons]

Watch the decision at the end to find out!

[@NgaNguyenPhuongPurpleCh.]

Quizizz is much better

[@aasthachhabra175]

Do you foresee the continual adoption (and willingness to pay) of these tools once schools open up and there's in person classes?

[@CharliesLessons]

Absolutely. I discovered these tools whilst teaching in person. About paying, the free versions of these tools offer enough to warrant their use in the classroom. Although I have to say, I'm not sure how long these tools will be free for.

[@aasthachhabra175]

Absolutely agree. I've been using both for the last few months and finding them very useful. What do you think are the critical features that Kahoot or Quizizz should include as part of their roadmap?

[@CharliesLessons]

I think linking their platforms to major coursebooks and editorials so that teachers can test and assess their students with tailor-made quizzes on both kahoot and quizziz.
