Blooket is a web-based quiz game platform that allows teachers to create question sets and launch games for their students. The platform offers a variety of game modes, including Racing, Café, and Tower of Doom, which can be played solo or in teams. Students can join games using a code and answer questions in real-time with their devices.
The platform is designed to be engaging and fun, with rewards for answering questions correctly and quickly. Teachers can customize game settings to de-emphasize speed and focus on accuracy. Blooket also allows teachers to import question sets from Quizlet and search public question sets to use or adapt as their own.
However, it's worth noting that Blooket has raised some concerns about student privacy, particularly for younger students. According to the law and Blooket's terms, children under 13 shouldn't create accounts, so teachers should instruct kids under 13 to skip past the account creation prompt.
Blooket has been reviewed by Common Sense Education, which has given it a learning rating of 78% and a community rating of 78%. The review notes that the platform is a fun option for content review, but it could benefit from exploring ways to deepen learning.
