DESCRIPTION

Gimkit is a quiz learning game for students and teachers, created and maintained by students. After signing up, you begin by creating "kits" (live learning games) to create quizzes. Gimkit can be used in any classroom to introduce or review concepts; it's like a mashup of Kahoot! and Quizlet. The live gameplay is fast-paced and engaging like a game show, but when it's assigned for independent practice, Gimkit functions more like flash cards. Speaking of Quizlet, you can import Quizlet sets (text only) into Gimkit with just a few clicks. Using either the Quizlet import feature or the collaborative quiz-building KitCollab mode, you can create a Gimkit game in a few minutes. This makes it easy to insert an interactive review game into your lesson with minimal prep. Teachers can also use the assignments feature to give homework. You set a due date, and students work through the kit at their own pace, answering questions until they reach a set goal.

FEATURES

1. It has unlimited access to all task because this game is free. You not only need to pay money but you can earn money through this game as well. When a student successfully answers a question, the student will not be rewarded but given money for investment

2. Have limited edition game mode

Another really fun thing about Gimkit is the limited edition game modes they come out with every so often! Recently, they came out with a Thanos Mode for the release of Avengers: Endgame, and they came out with 3 new modes for Teacher Appreciation Week 2019. This added some really fun new twists to the game, and it was extra fun because we knew it was only available for a short time!

3. It has different mode such as team, individual and race. so, you can play this game as individual or team in class. This will increase your competition to win this game. If you want to fight between groups you can choose game mode. it will take time to discuss before answering the question. This game can also be played alone. if you want to test your level of understanding, this game is very helpful.

BENEFITS

1. Help student with better understanding because gimkit has allows for questions to repeat on a random loop, allowing for more repetitions.

It will repeat itself or you can set it as well. If the question is not answered, it will be repeated so that you can better understand the question and will not repeat the same error. It's very important to train yourself before the exam.

2. Can setting up different game mode (individual, team, race).

In the classic game mode, you set the game to last for a certain amount of time, and at the end of that time, whoever has the most money is the winner. You can also set it up so that the game ends when someone reaches a certain amount of money or when the class as a whole reaches a certain amount of money. I generally stick to the timed games, though, so I can control how long the game lasts.

3. Can get money while learning.

In this game you will get money if you answer question correctly. With this money you can choose to continue answer question or make investment to power up the game. If you use to power up, you will get more advantage while use this game. If you choose to continue you will have to possibilities which as get more money if you answer correctly or your money will decrease if you answer wrongly.

HOW TO START THE GAME

1. You will need to pick out a question set (a “Kit”) to use (more on that later in the post!). Once you have a set picked out, click “Play” and it will take you to the game settings.

2. You can choose Classic (individual) or Team play. On Team play, it randomly groups students into teams and all of their money gets pooled together.

3. You can then decide what you want the goal of the game to be. You can set a time limit (whoever has the most money at the end of the time limit wins), you can make it a race to a certain amount of money (game ends when someone hits that amount), or you can set it so that the game ends when the class as a whole reaches a certain amount of money.

3. Once you have everything set up, just click “Continue” and it brings up the page that allows students to enter the game.

4. Then input the code and your username.
