Quizizz for Schools

Avantages

- simple d'utilisation- design épuré - engageant

Inconvénients

- aucun points faibles - le logiciel est génial il n'y a rien a redire

Avantages

The feature I like most, BY FAR, about Quizizz is the Teleport feature when creating a quiz. A teacher is multitasking now more than ever as we teach virtually and time does not always lend itself to typing up entire quizzes and tests. With the Teleport feature teachers can chose to import another teacher's entire quiz or select individual questions from various quizzes that are already created. The Teleport feature is the most important and functional feature of Quizizz.

Inconvénients

I do not like how questions and quizzes in the Quizizz software are so easily accessed by students for the purpose of cheating. While I like to keep my Quizizz public so that other teachers can teleport my questions for their benefit, it is a double edge sword because a student simply has to search my username or Quizizz title and they can easily find my quiz with all of the answers. Quizizz is the best tool to hold students accountable when taking assessments, but its purpose is defeated if they have access to all of the questions and answers in advance.

Avantages

Picking the questions is fun. I like to upload images also.

Inconvénients

Cheating. There is a site that gives you all the answers. This has happened the entire school year. They need to fix this asap. Quizizz is useless until this fixed because many of the students cheat this way.

Avantages

This program has been absolutely essential this year. I can create formative assessments within minutes and receive data in seconds to inform my instruction. Features that I love: I can automatically compare whole class scores. I can see at a single glance how individual students are doing. I can review the top missed questions with one click. Students can work at their own pace. They have funny memes the kids enjoy. The power ups encourage students who aren’t the top of the class. It saves my student’s scores, so I can go back and track class participation. I can teleport in other teacher-created questions with a single click. I can assign quizzes for homework (or virtual students) or run them live in class. I don’t have to wait for that one student that has a slow connection to start the quiz because the code stays at the top of the screen once you start it. If someone doesn’t have a device, I can log in as a participant and project what they would see on the board while they write their answers on paper. I can’t really say anything negative about this program. It’s fantastic! (and I’m not paid to say this :)

Inconvénients

There isn’t anything negative I can say about the program. I could see ways that you could further develop it in the future (allow more integration features...automatically add grades to Infinite Campus like GradeCam does, or add more slides features) but it functions very well just the way it is currently.

Avantages

I love the changes you make that are so student centered. Powerups, etc. students love personal choice and you make it easy. I also love how the questions & answers are on the same screen so students who are learning remotely can see both. That is a huge plus over kahoot.

Inconvénients

I love this software. If it integrated with our grade portal that would be nice, but our grade portal is a sad little app that no one uses.

Students would always get frustrated that in their excitement they chose the wrong color. They had to look up at the question and remember the correct color - which is a problem for students with short term memory issues.

Pourquoi passer à Quizizz for Schools

Kahoot hasn't done a good job of improving their basic flaws. Additionally, if you don't purchase the upgrade, half of the kahoots in the discovery area don't work. They are also constantly flooding the screen with info on upgrading. Let it be - if someone's going to upgrade, they will figure out how to do it. Teachers have to spend their own money in a lot of places, so if they don't pay for an upgrade, it's a student-needs decision.

Avantages

The best thing a out Quizizz is the options it offers. You can create or edit a wide variety of Quizizz on nearly any topic. You can assign it to be done asynchronously or do Live Quizizz with the students. You get full reports on how well they did which can be used for grading.

Inconvénients

I’m not sure if there is anything that doesn’t work well for my needs.

Avantages

It makes my online classes very interactive and I love the features provided by the platform to create quiziz i.e. I can add images to the questions and can create both open ended and close ended quiz. I can play quiz live in the class or can be given as assignment for homework. Different background themes provided by the platform are really liked by students

Inconvénients

I really don't like its background music because I am a regular user of this platform during my online class. But the good part is I can mute it from my end.

Avantages

What I like most about Quizizz is the competitive spirit it gives to the students because it shows timely results to the students, indicating their points and their position on the leaderboard.

Inconvénients

What I least like about Quizizz is the feedback mechanism because it only flashes briefly when it's done live.

Avantages

Quizziz has free complete lessons with activities included about different topics. The assessment is accurate and educators do not have to soend a lot of time grading activities.

Inconvénients

Probably the lack of media resources, even the fact than we can finsd them in the pro version. I consider that they can include more media content.

Avantages

I like the ease of this software. Students become accustomed to using it quickly. It is great as a bell ringer, as an introduction to a new topic and as a review. In fact, my students especially like using quizizz as their main method of studying for a test. As a teacher, I also appreciate that I can use their answers in order to gather and analyze data about students' strengths and weaknesses.

Inconvénients

I would like see more features for the quizzes. It woud be nice to be able to convert a quiz into other features easily. For example, I would like to assign questions in the form of flashcards or other game forms, as a way to study or a homework assignment. Quizlet has many of those features, but I prefer using Quizizz and my students do as well.

Avantages

none. site never functions as featured.

Inconvénients

Few things work properly on this site. Tech Support responds one day later with no solutions, a "sorry" message filled with meaningless words. Off shore support!

Avantages

The idea of the app is very creative, you can not find an educational app nowadays actually, it is a little helpful for me as a teacher, I can take a quiz idea as an art teacher it is a very hard to find an app cares about art and teaching art so I really find it helpful for me.

Inconvénients

it is really complicated, at first when I start using it I find a hard time to understand the system, I hope they make it easier for me and for other, also I wish they included Arabic language for it, so I can tell my arab student about it.

Avantages

El programa es bastante práctico por lo que su uso es sencillo aunque cabe recalcar que hay más opciones que requieren un poco más de experticia para su manejo. Las diferentes opciones para generar evaluaciones es ideal para todo tipo de requerimientos de usuario al permitir evaluar varios aspectos. Su aplicación en las operaciones empresariales es sencillo debido debido a su fácil manejo y acceso.

Inconvénients

En general el uso y manejo de la plataforma es bastante sencillo y de buen resultado, si embargo podría resultar algo confuso par determinado público, por lo que sería bastante útil que al crear un usuario y acceder la plataforma e presente un video y/o tutorial del manejo (resolución se evaluaciones) en fin de aclarar dudas posibles.

Avantages

This is by far the easiest program to use, and I have played around with MANY! Quizizz is so user friendly for both teacher and student and doesn't require us to jump through 700 hoops to get to our quiz. I am easily able to link my students on Google Classroom to Quizizz and set up live games or asynchronous practice. HIGHLY recommend Quizizz over all APPS!

Inconvénients

There were some copyright infringements posted by other teachers, but Quizizz customer service took them down immediately. So, I wouldn't say this is something I dislike, but rather appreciate that they value the integrity of their site and following laws. Super responsive customer service and always super friendly! You don't see that very often anymore. Thank you!

Quizizz provides more options, does not flood your browser with pop-ups advertising upgrades or additional purchases, and is just overall more organized. Quizizz is SO user friendly and straight-forward: any math teachers dream!

Avantages

It was a pleasure to have been introduced to this product in August 2017 because since then I have been using this product in both pre-teaching and in assessment for my students in Grades3, 4, 5, and 6 at St. Cecilia's School and in my Religious Education Programme (CCD) at St. Cecila's Church. I use the multiple-choice aspect to assist my students in mastery the content and concepts in my classes and I use the open-end questions in final assessments for my older students. I sometime mixed the diffeent types of question to allow students with spelling and language issues to find more ease in their assessment. Thank you for developing this product. It has eased much of my stress in marking quizzes and in helping students take control of their learning. I complements the other tools that I use splendidly.

Inconvénients

I find it challenging not to be able to edit a quiz after students have begun using it. Sometimes I may have an error that I did not detect before use and I would need to introduce a new code when a quiz was already in use. If a quiz has not be used, I can edit, but occassionaly, I do not identify mistakes until after students begin using the product.

Avantages

It's easy to use.
Inexpensive.
I like the question options.
It's very engaging for my students.
My students love the "football" and "synthwave" themes!

Inconvénients

It would be nice to post an image and add audio. Now, I have to create an actual video and post it.
Could we get more theme choices? I do like that there is variety now. Some reggae, Caribbean? Daftpunk?
Total time-lapse timer would be a good feature for the lessons especially!

Avantages

I use Quizizz in practically all of my classes and also in activities outside the classroom. It is a fundamental tool to make students learn more in less time and with less effort. Quizizz transforms the student's work into a game and, in this sense, brings the school closer to the preferences of our young people, using the type of language that is familiar to them.
There are many other tools that have a similar way of working, and I have already tried some of them, but I believe that Quizizz is the most functional and the one that allows you to get better results. In this sense, I can only recommend Quizizz to all my colleagues and I have done several training actions to publicize the application.

Inconvénients

I don't think Quizizz has any weaknesses, although it can always be improved, as with everything else. I think the introduction of the lessons was an asset, but there are still some small bugs. It would also be interesting if there was a possibility to assign different weights to each of the questions, in order to give more value to the most difficult answers. It will also be very interesting if Quizizz is available in my national language, Portuguese, as there are some fellow teachers who are not very comfortable dealing with foreign languages.

Avantages

This software is by and far not only my favorite software, but that of my students as well. We start every class with a Quizizz review, and use it for independent practice at home too. Because the review and test format are so similar, there is no surprise on test day as to what the test will "look like". Parents, students and teachers alike like the instant feedback on test day. Plus, I can enail parents their child's test results immediately, so they know how they did.

Inconvénients

It would be great if you could add an archive file for old tests. I have tests showing that are more than 2 years old, and there is no easy way to delete them in mass. That is the only thing I can honestly say I dislike about this software.

Avantages

The product has a very good interface which makes it very easy to use for both learners and teachers. The instructors have visibility into the learners reports which will help them identify where the learners need assistance. The gamification option is also an advantage as it encourages participation from learners.

Inconvénients

It is a great tool. I have no reservations for now. I enjoy what the product is offering especially with the Covid period with students learning from home.

Avantages

Quizziz has the easiest navigation interface! This becomes the class favorite in terms of motivation activities as well the assessments. Because of the interaction that it gives to students, they tend to be more engaged and take part in the lessons while having fun.

Inconvénients

What I like the least about this software is that we have to pay for premium access in order to create unlimited games. However, it does not bother me that much, because paying for a premium also means wider access to Quizizz Super Library.

Avantages

An excellent program that helps students answer quickly, consolidate information, increase experience, and compete in answering questions

Inconvénients

I hope to add new paragraphs in the free section and remove the repeated questions in one slide

Avantages

It’s easy to use, and the children like the game format.

Inconvénients

The invites do t seem to get to parents, and it’s complicated then to get the children involved and working

Avantages

Quizizz has drastically changed learning both in person and remotely. It allows me to personalize the learning for each student. It's so easy to modify an assignment and scaffold it to fit the students in the room. It gamifies things which kids really tap into and are engaged by. It promotes self paced learning and collaboration. I also love the paperless aspect of it. After kids complete an assignment, one click and all parents are emailed. The data it collects allows me to easily form small groups for more intense intervention when needed. I'm not sure what I'd do without it.

Inconvénients

When creating slides in the new paid version, I'd love to be able to add websites, and the videos there. Now you're forced to use YouTube, which is great, but I miss so many other great video sites like StudyJams, and PBS.

Avantages

This software will engage your students and create data that can help you drive instruction. There are many quizzes already created for you to use with your classroom on a variety of topics. It’s also very easy to create your own assessment to check for understanding of their learning.

Inconvénients

The only con of this software is you must check all the questions for accuracy as sometimes quizzes have mistakes on the

Avantages

Quizizz for math is much more user-friendly. You can write math with ease and the flexibility with dole out assignments is great. I paid for the subscription mainly so I could have unlimited deadlines for assignments. I came enjoying Kahoot! but their format is designed to make you pay. Quizizz the free version is so much better than Kahoot it was an easy switch.

Inconvénients

Trouble assigning things with google classroom a few days out.
No way to review a quizizz until the game has completely ended.
