Gamification is awesome! As a Spanish teacher, I have always used games to teach massive amounts of vocabulary. Before the wide use of digital games, we would play whiteboard games and other engaging games to learn vocab. Now with the vast amount of digital games, it's fun to use those in addition to other traditional games. I'm happy that gamification is becoming more widely accepted in education. I always knew my students were learning while playing the games. Some games I have used a lot are Quizlet Live which is fun for a whole class games, Blooket (I think it's pronounced like "look" or "book" not "blue"). I liked Gimkit but it's very expensive for a yearly subscription. Thanks for a great video. Very informative!
just spent a while using this as PD to gather a list of tools I want to check out this summer prior to next year starting. Thank you! The ones I'm most interested in are: Classcraft, Booklet, and GimKit. Again, thank you!
Thanks for a great and informative video. I recently had a PD on gamification, and it was interesting. I have several friends who teach world language, and they have been gamifying their classrooms for a long time. It sounds like a technology trend that will be around for a while. I have used Kahoot, but I have switched to other platforms because Kahoot is overused, and students get bored with it. My students love Blooket and Quizlet Live. However, you mentioned many others I had yet to hear about, and I'm excited to try them out. Thank you for the excellent content. Keep up the good work!
Thank you for this post, I enjoyed your video. I am looking into gamification ideas for teaching medical students. Many of the apps that you profiled are more geared towards a younger population. However, some of them could likely be applied to graduate level medical education. It would be awesome if perhaps in the future you might create a video on tools for adult learners.
Thanks for the suggestion Michael! I think most adults would enjoy a gamified experience, even if it looks like something grade school students would play.
Thanks for all of the information! Next time, do you think you can make a video solely for the free apps/websites for teachers? I don't want to have to offer paid subscriptions to my teachers.
If you're asking if this is a sponsored video, no it isn't. Some of the games we show are for paid programs (Flocabulary and ST Math, for example). Others have plenty of free features in addition to paid ones (Quizizz, Prodigy, Classcraft, Blooket, etc.).

Curious to what the drawing tool app you have in the top right of your screen.?
It's called Annotate.net, and it's awesome! Here's a video about it: ruclips.net/video/QmqDYoUOvSc/видео.html

Sure, we do also have many other video about tools that are either 100% free or have high-level functionality with the free version.
Awesome video thanks so much, to teach writing - I use a program called Writestyler which has games and is pretty good
Right on!
Wonderful video!
Thank you!
Thank you so much!
Sure thing Di Volk!
Huge thanks
You're welcome, Rudi!
this is great😊
Classcraft looks great but is SOOOOO hard to implement!
Yeah, I hear you. You definitely need to be committed to it and be willing to take the time required to maintain it.
Are these ads? Every recommendation that I've looked up is a paid service!
