Yesterday, I had a presentation for grades 9 to 12, and at my school, I was asked to do this pretty suddenly, so I didn't have much time to prepare.
The night before the presentation, when I was preparing, I decided against giving a traditional presentation and opted instead to make a quiz. This would make Friday afternoon more interesting.
I've seen many teachers at my school and at other schools I've worked at turn to Kahoot to do a quiz. The problem with Kahoot is that it's stale because students have done it so much. Another problem is that the same people always win. And then, another problem is the way it's set up; you need to have a device in order to use it, and your screen only shows the answers, making it less accessible for those of us with weaker eyes.
Fortunately, I know about another tool called Baamboozle. I really like Baamboozle because the students don't need a device to answer - you can project the questions and answers at once. You can set up a quiz very quickly because there is a library with premade options. Additionally, the teacher has control over the answers and whether they're right or not on the spot. Even if a student gets the answer correct, you can choose to not give them points. I can’t think of many use-cases for that, but one thing I do is allow the other teams to challenge the answer to add a little more thinking to the game.
In order to set this quiz up, I turned to AI and asked it to generate 25 questions with answers (see below).
During this quiz, I mentioned to the students that the quiz and the answers were generated with AI. I was surprised by the response.
Many students seemed to think that it was not OK to do that. I am wondering how the school can better educate students about when it is OK to use AI.
