Quizizz for Schools

Avantages

Es una plataforma didáctica, simple, amigable y completa para el docente. De forma intuitiva, las herramientas para creación de distintos tipos de cuestionarios me ha permitido crear material de uso diario con mis estudiantes. Dentro de lo que mas me ha gustado es que a pesar de que tiene un sistema de pago para la adquisición de mas características, el modo free me ha dado la capacidad de preparar y aplicar pruebas pequeñas con feedback instantáneo en mi sala de clases, es exactamente lo que estaba buscando.

Inconvénients

Dentro de las pocas cosas que no he encontrando cómodo, es la limitante del tipo de preguntas y respuestas que reconoce la plataforma, estas, por la complejidad que exijo entre mis estudiantes, puede ser lógico que no las reconozca (respuestas de desarrollo, dibujos, etc).

Avantages

In fact, I have used it both as a student and as a substitute teacher, so I must say that all the functions of this tool are quite useful and easy to implement, however, what I like the most about the tool is all that it allows for new users try its free version. However, I am sure that in its paid version, which has another point in favor since it is economical, it must be incredible.

Inconvénients

Having used it in its free version, I must admit that it greatly limits the number of participants in a room, something that can be solved. On the other hand, a not very good point is that it requires a good internet so that it does not get stuck.

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

La facilidad de uso, su interactividad e innovación constante para diversificar la enseñanza

Inconvénients

Tal vez presenta algo de dificultad en el uso particular de los estudiantes que se acercan por primera vez a la plataforma

Pourquoi passer à Quizizz for Schools

Avantages

Es muy sencillo de utilizar para cualquier edad, es muy fácil de acceder, totalmente dinámico, interactivo y ayuda a fomentar el fácil aprendizaje. Puedes acceder desde cualquier dispositivo, en cualquier lugar que te encuentres. Te permite revisar tus errores para poder corregir y aprender. Mejora la atención y concentración, te ayuda a reforzar todos los temas que desees, tanto de forma individual como con otros compañeros, y hace que aprender sea divertido.

Inconvénients

Hasta el momento todas mis experiencias con Quizizz han sido totalmente positivas.

Avantages

I love how this assessment tool can be student paced and the questions are seen on the individual electronic devices. Teaching students with a variety of learning differences, this allows for them to take the quizizz in their time.

Inconvénients

Honestly this software is almost perfect!...But I would love to be able to filter question type (MC, checkbox, FITB, poll, open-ended) when teleporting questions from other Quizizz users.

Avantages

Quizziz has many tools that can make the learning process much more fun, easier and even faster and more effective, and that is something that I admire a lot and I would say that is what I like the most about this platform. The communication that you get to have in the Quizziziz community is also very good, and by this I also mean the good customer service you have in case of any problem or inconvenience.

Inconvénients

There really isn't anything I don't like about the app, because I haven't found any flaws or drawbacks.

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

With Quizizz you can create interactive quizzes through which several people can interact to compete against each other in an evaluation against the clock.
I see several pros with this software, the first is that it manages to be very dynamic when it comes to solving questions and that makes it very fun, in addition to being a good technique to clarify the different ideas that are seen in a school environment.
As a second good thing, is that it has many ways in which "the administrator" can form the evaluation of it: multiple choice, arrangement of columns, open questions, etc.
As a student, I really recommend Quizizz to teachers, because many times it is inevitable to get bored after long days of learning, but this software is a good way to cope with academics while having a good time.

Inconvénients

Having quite a few options, Quizizz can be quite confusing with teachers, and in turn with students.
For this reason, I highly recommend that whoever is going to use this software watch the series of visual and explanatory tutorials offered by Quizizz to have the best possible experience when taking quizzes.

Avantages

What I love about Quizizz is how much of an interactive platform it is. It is especially useful during online learning because students are able to create questions themselves based on the presentations they give in class. Other students can then play the game to see how much they have retained from the presentations and teachers are able to see who paid attention and who did not. Other than that, Quizizz is a very user-friendly tool that makes learning extremely fun and it makes the classroom setting more lively because of the increased engagement during lessons. I use Quizizz mostly for reviews before exams and find it effective in refreshing students' memories about what was taught in class.

Inconvénients

There are few cons to be addressed, however, one that I would like to mention is that Quizizz makes it so players are able to be on different questions at the same time. This makes it easy for them to cheat during class reviews because if one person is quicker in answering a question, then they can pass the answer on to someone else who had not gotten to it yet.

Avantages

I love that you can create your own quizziz, as well as assign them, I love that you can pick from their quizziz options too! I also like where

Inconvénients

Honestly there were not too many negatives for Quizizz. The only negative is that you need a school subscription, which I'm not a big fan of.

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

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

There is a lot to like about this software!
1- It has the option to set multiple choice and single answer questions.
2- It allows to set up some exams privately which helps if you are trying to keep confidential information of your organization private.
3- There are several quizzes available for a variety of general subjects.
4- You can manage exams real time or assign them as homework if possible.
5- Exam takers are entertained and it is catchy as it is visually appealing. The meme feature makes it cool too as it fun to watch. I always hear people chuckle at them, and it seems to ease the tension a regular test can have
6- It save records of each time a test is taken, so all is available and at hand in case you need to report individual results. It also generates report with question accuracy, which can help a facilitator define if a question may need reconsideration

Inconvénients

My only complaint is that when it gets laggy it tends to freeze to the point it won't sometimes let participants continue in the tests, especially if it is long. I have found ways around the issue, but troubleshooting real time can be problematic and it can cause a little mess at times.

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

I like the ability to engage students with introductory quizzes and then review the material afterwards. Even the quietest students can participate and the gregarious ones get very competitive. With the addition of open-ended questions, I can ask for more specific feedback on difficult topics. Quizzizz games are easy to create especially if you import material from other users and the report feature is helpful if you are assigning them for credit.

Inconvénients

Integration with our LMS would be amazing for graded Quizizz games. The music during live games is dreadful and I would like to be able to always have it off not just turn it off once a game has started. For higher education, some cleaner more grown-up theme choices would be nice.

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

Se aprende jugando, es fácil de usar y muy entretenida

Inconvénients

A veces se enreda un poco con tantas opciones.

Avantages

I love how Quizizz allows users to search through a large bank of already-made questions. I also enjoy using Quizizz's "Homework" feature for Asynchronous learning and staff development. I often use Quizizz for ice-breakers and staff "get to know you" activities during professional development days.

Inconvénients

I dislike how some once-free features are now premium only. For instance, I cannot schedule a homework game far in advance. I must wait until the day or two before the game's time frame to create the game and share out the game link. I also have to put an end date on my games since I do not have a premium account.

Avantages

Me gusta que siempre este disponible para contestarlo y también el fácil acceso que se puede tener ya que a travéz de un código se puede ingresar directamente a responder las preguntas o dejar comentarios.

Inconvénients

Que no sea muy reconocido ya que para mí es una de las mejores herramientas de aprendizaje y/o evaluación a los estudiantes.

Avantages

What I love about Quizizz is it allows me to quickly make assessments for my students in various subject areas. It's awesome that you often do not need to make a quiz from scratch because you can add questions from other public quizzes. I love this feature. Additionally, you can have students take Quizizzes live or they can take them at the own pace which can be assigned in Google Classroom. The questions are not in the same order so it's harder for students to share answers. It's easy to organize your quizzes on the site by creating folders. All of these things are what helps make Quizizz my favorite online assessment tool.

Inconvénients

At this time I don't have any cons. It would be cool to see them integrate slides similar to ones you can make on Nearpod.

Avantages

I like ease of use. As well as the connectivity for the students. It's really simple to set up it's nice for them to log into, and it's great that it connects to their Google account. It makes set up a breeze. Searching for content to super easy, there's a huge selection and if you can't find what you're looking for it doesn't take long to set up your own.

Inconvénients

I would like the ability to have students submit their own one word answer or number answer and have it check to see if it's right. Right now the only function for that is in a poll but it doesn't correct it.

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

First off, this software is free! So why wouldn't you use it? I use it as a teacher as a review method for material we've learned in class. My students like it because it gamifies my questions instead of a kill-and-drill worksheet or flashcard review.

Inconvénients

This software is free, so I can't complain; however, it is very similar to Kahoot!'s gaming learning platform. If I could offer one improvement, I wish it would be more elementary kid-friendly like Blooket's gaming platform (has individualized animal characters and glitches to taunt classmates).

Avantages

Ease of use. Customer service. Math symbols --this is a big deal for math teachers! Fun and easy for kids to use. Instant feedback is so valuable for student learning! Easy to adapt quizzes created by other users. Love being able to import single questions from other quizzes, not just my own. Being able to embed explanations for students after they miss a question is a great learning tool for students as well. The data collection is super helpful for remediation. Instructor-paced feature is great for full-class review. Love being able to record my own voice reading each question for my students who have read-aloud accommodations! Amazing!

Inconvénients

I really can't think of anything at this point. The folks at Quizizz seem to always be adapting and improving their product so that it is the best out there.

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

Pourquoi passer à Quizizz for Schools

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

Lo que más me gustó de las funcionalidades de quizizz.
Es muy intuitivo y de facil manejo.
En la biblioteca hay una gran variedad de recursos que otros docentes han creado y compartido.
La opción de teleport es fantástica, por que puedes importar preguntas de otros quizizz públicos.
La opción a modo de instructor es muy potente, dado que nos permite realizar feedback en todo momento.
Los potenciadores y memes es la parte más atractiva por parte de los estudiantes.
Las opciones de juevo en vivo
El editor de ecuaciones para las preguntas de matemática.

Inconvénients

Como sugerencia, me gustaría que agregaran la función de poder ver en tiempo real qué estudiante ha acertado o no, al término del tiempo de la pregunta en modo "a ritmo de instuctor".
También la opción de poder trabajar de manera colaborativa las lecciones.

Avantages

I absolutely love that this product allows me to not only assess student learning but also keep my students engaged in the learning.

Inconvénients

There is nothing about Quizizz that I found undesirable. Currently, I have a free account and I am able to use all of the useful functions. I would love to test a pro account to see if it is worth purchasing.

Avantages

I have been using the product for several years now, and have enjoyed the ease of use with my students on both formative and summative assessments. The upgrades in the past 6 months have made it even better. The question type choices let me see more from my students. The teacher paced lessons now let me see in real time where the struggle is and address it head on right away.

Inconvénients

I would like to see the open response questions have the option for the teacher to grade them instead of just being automatically marked correct. I would also like the ability to adjust the score on a fill in the blank questions, there are so many little ways students can have the correct answer, but not one I thought of at the time I set it up.

Avantages

I have used Quizizz with students in elementary classes and in higher education. I love the live game which engages all students and adds excitement and a friendly competitive atmosphere to the class. I always set the same game as homework requiring the students to return to the material when they are more focused and calmer. Students can play over and over again until they are happy with their grade - this is motivating and supports learning.

Inconvénients

I am disappointed that task dates are now minimal if you do not pay for the premium version, which is expensive for educators who pay out of their own pocket.

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

Allows me to create content questions with easy or difficult answer options. Can use as pre or post lesson assessments. Can deliver in class or as a remote learning tool. Google Classroom compatible. Love the feature that allows me to see other users' questions about a topic and include or modify them in the Quizizz I am creating. Feature of read -aloud is helpful accommodation for learning support students. Options to offer multiple attempts for a Quizizz session motivate students to improve their score(s). Feature to allow me to use my own memes is very entertaining for students. Performance reports are easy to navigate and useful for documenting student performance. Could not have survived distance learning in Spring 2020 or hybrid learning in Fall of 2020 without this software!

Inconvénients

Must really concentrate when delivering session to students - like that I can make arrangements to program at a certain time and for a certain period of time but, when delivering to 4 separate classes, I must concentrate on all of the options. However, I do not see a work-around for this as it is also a valued feature!

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.

Avantages

As an educator in the Middle School setting I find Quizizz a great interactive tool to engage my students. I use Quizizz on a daily basis for review of different concepts that I am teaching in a virtual and traditional classroom setting. Because it is a gaming activity students relate quickly, and from a educational tool it teaches the concept of multiple choice activities and vocabulary recognition similar to a a multiple choice test. I set up my activities similar to a test where there is one correct answer and one tease answer. I also like the fact that I can post Quizizz to my Google Classroom where students can get practice on their own time. I often get notifications outside of class where students are engaged in learning while playing a game from home or on their mobile devices.

Inconvénients

I don't like the limited time for assignments. I enjoyed the longer assignment option last year.

Avantages

One of the best features frpm Quizziz is the sound that creates an inmersion context about trying to get the best score you can get.

Inconvénients

Somestimes somes of the images (more on mobile devices) are displayed on a different resolution, most of the time is worst but not the lowest. It is the only change I'd try to implement on the app.

Avantages

It is easy & fast to use! I enjoy using it in the beginning and end of class, or as a homework study tool.

Inconvénients

I think a leveling system would give it more of a game like experience. I enjoy the powerups, but there could be a few more. The kids really enjoy the themes and upgrades (keep them coming please). I had an idea where people could adapt a racing game into a Quizizz type game. Students are racing a car, and they are periodically stopped to answer a Quizizz question. If you adapt this idea, you can mail my check to my school or offer me a job, whichever you like.

Also, I like the Lessons function, but it needs to be a little more user friendly.

Avantages

--> First and foremost, it helped me engage my virtual students.
--> It also helped me get feedback from students during a lesson in real time.
--> One of my teacher friends is a little hesitant about using technology but she found it very easy to use.
She developed and used a lesson she created with ease.
--> It provides a great option for absent students -- they can do the lesson on their own and I can see if they understood it.
--> Great feedback. Love the silly names so that students don't have the opportunity to put naughty names up for the amusement of their mates.
--> The ONLY problem that I have had with this program is that when I do live lessons, I only get a few real names! When the feedback is returned by the silly names, it's impossible to give a fair grade for participation or accuracy. Equally impossible to use the results to differentiate.

Inconvénients

The ONLY problem that I have had with this program is that when I do live lessons, I only get a few real names! When the feedback is returned by the silly names, it's impossible to give a fair grade for participation or accuracy. Equally impossible to use the results to differentiate.

Isn't there a way to force students to be logged on in a Live lesson?

Avantages

This software is very easy to use and the students like it very much! You can perfectly group your quiz into different topics and as a new feature you can even generate lessons!

Inconvénients

I would love to have an "assign" question type. Like "assign the fitting pairs."

Avantages

I can plan an entire interactive lesson in 30 minutes, as well as assessments for my students.
I can survey students and receive feedback immediately.
Just as well, the ability to borrow from others' creations is magnificent. The fact that I don't waste time, is unbeatable.

Inconvénients

It would be nice if it could link to multiple platforms, similar to how Google Classroom.
Also in the lessons, you cannot move slides to rearrange the order.
If there were content specific tools (math in my case) to make the questions even more interactive would be great.

Avantages

You can use this software anytime and anywhere you like because of its BYOD feature, which lets students see the contents of their files on PCs, laptops, tablets, and smartphones. It is also easy to use. Anyone could use this software, whether they are students, teachers, or company employees, for interactive activities.

Inconvénients

Sometimes it is difficult for users to connect to an assessment.

Avantages

Quizizz is one of my favorite engagement tools! I love how easy it is to get students to log into the quiz even during distance learning. I have used this tool for 3 years and every time I tell my students we are going to do quizizz they cheer. I believe it has helped tremendously with my students learning their multiplication facts as well.
Another amazing feature is that you can assign the quiz a homework and students can retake it several times which just gives them more practice at a skill.

Inconvénients

The only con I've been able to see is that you cannot name your teams in you are playing in team mode other than that I think Quizizz is an amazing product!

Avantages

I love the fact that I can browse through the Quizziz library of pre-made assessments for my students and customize them to fit my needs. My students are always highly engaged and enjoy learning content this way. Integration with Google Classroom is a very convenient feature, and it is easy to monitor student progress with the detailed reports which help me pinpoint strengths and weaknesses in each class.

Inconvénients

When using Quizziz as a formal assessment, I try to give students as much time as possible to answer each question and often remove the timer feature. However, many of my students, especially those with 504 plans or IEPs, would like the option of going back to check over their previously selected answers, which this software does not allow them to do.

Avantages

Yo tengo niños co TDH y otros factores que necesitan un forma simple sin colores brillantes para aprender y esta aplica perfectamente, hay otras parecidas en el mercado pero tienen muchos distractores de color, letra, demasiada gamificación que no es opcional. Quizizz la tiene si la deseas pero la puedes quitar, les gusta que les enseñe sus errores y aprenden de ellos. La retroalimentación cuantitativa y cualitativa. Tiene muchas opciones de reactivos, está genial.

Inconvénients

La música, pero se puede apagar. No se que más escribir ya que todo me gusta.

Avantages

The software interface is attractive, innovative and encourages competition among students. The feature that I like the most about the software is that it allows students to customize their quizzes according to their preferences, which is an important factor for students to finish their assignments.

Inconvénients

Sometimes when you use the “Fill in the blank” feature, Quizziz is uncapable to identify similar words even if they are included in the list of correct answers.

Avantages

One of the biggest things I like about quizizz besides being free is the fact that students can save and close a quiz and then continue from where they left off. That is HUGE for me. It allows students who need more time to take more time. I haven't been able to find ANYTHING else out there that is free that does this.

Inconvénients

It does have it's glitches here and there. It's also not the easiest to setup a brand new quiz.

Avantages

Easy learning curve.
Quick feedback, formative assessments....
Library (many formative assessments already made)

Inconvénients

Not able to sort students names by email address.....
I need to sort so my list of names matches my gradebook....

I migration tool to Infinite Campus (IC) would be nice, until then a better sort would save me time.

The download option with excel is ok... takes too much time.
I need a screen with names and grades in gradebook order so I can just look at that window and type in entry in IC.

Currently "I am writing down names, initials with grades.
I have small classes so this is acceptable for now.... Large classes would be unacceptable.
