So today I going to explain something that really fun and useful. Have you heard about Kahoot? No?
Okay, I'll explain about Kahoot. So, Kahoot is an online tool where you can make multichoice quizzes for free and you also can try answering other people quizzes.
It's very easy and everyone can use it. How? Let me tell you how:

Free online quiz maker like Kahoot has many benefits:
1. It is easy to use and free.
2. It's draw student's attention.
3. Make class more fun by introducing a new thing.
4. As the new generation who care about nature, it doesn't need paper.
And much more!

But also there are some drawbacks:
1. It could be hard for some people, especially the old generations.
2. Kahoot limited the word you can write.
3. it kept student focus on the screen, which is bad for eyes.

But it doesn't mean that I don't recommend teachers to use it. Living in an advanced era, if we could not follow, we would out of date and it could be a setback in the classroom.
That all from me!

    Jovi, I love your blog a lot! How could I not be? You can give explanations which are unexpected and also you explained it clearly. The words you use are also easy to be understood. I agree with the drawbacks you explained, it is so comprehensive. I suppose it is better for you to include some pictures, the screenshot of your kahoot for instance.

    I agree that we must follow the era. Too much looking on screen is very bad for eyes also for brain. Sometimes it will make us a little headache.
