Reply To: Lesson 2.3 Providing Feedback That Drives Learning Forward – Discussion

Thanks for your honest take on Kahoot, and Kahoot like tools. I actually had several families relate that, in the past, their child hated activities like Kahoot. The fact that they were never fast enough totally destroyed their confidence, so they felt that they could never show what they know in a way that was valued. When people talk about how much the kids love Kahoot you have to wonder which kids are they talking to. I personally have never used it and probably never will. Desmos is remarkable and will continue to be a major component of my professional development.
