Updated on

We know that you use Kahoot a lot for classes and meetings. It would be a best practice to start using Poll Everywhere, and we have a lot more article on Poll Everywhere which can be found here Poll Everywhere. Another pro for changing to this best practice is that we can have meeting with Poll Everywhere to talk about any issues that are being encountered with the software including adding more accessibility feature into it. These are not able to be done with Kahoot.
