Kahoot! Integrates With Zoom to Deliver Engagement in Video Conferencing and Virtual Learning

The Kahoot! app for Zoom Meetings enables everyone to create seamless experiences that drive engagement and learning in video meetings

Kahoot!, the global learning platform company, announced that it is joining forces with Zoom Video Communications, Inc. to launch the Kahoot! app for Zoom, making it easy for Zoom meeting participants to access, host and play Kahoot! learning content directly within Zoom Meetings.

As the world has accelerated the adoption of video communications in work and social contexts, engagement has proven to be key to effective learning, collaboration and connection. At a time when many businesses are remaining virtual or preparing for a hybrid model, the Kahoot! app for Zoom will make it easier than ever for corporate leaders to connect and motivate their team members with Kahoot!’s interactive, game-based learning experiences.

The Kahoot! app for Zoom enables users to access, host and play Kahoot! games and learning content with other meeting attendees without ever leaving the Zoom Meeting or needing a second device. Corporate leaders can energize their teams in meetings, presentations and virtual events.

Unleash the potential of every video call

With the Kahoot! app for Zoom, hosts can harness the power of friendly competition and play to drive engagement for all participants. Users can facilitate pulse-checks with employees to gauge knowledge and gather feedback, inspire creative thinking with word clouds and empower participants’ voices with polls, open-ended questions and more. Organizations can also crowdsource ideas and take collaboration to the next level with the brainstorm feature.

Meeting hosts will have instant access to data and reporting from their Kahoot! experience, enabling real-time responses based on audience interaction with the content. Hosts can also share the Kahoot! games as self-paced challenges with others who weren’t able to attend live, or they can send the games to all participants to practice and improve their scores, extending attendees’ engagement and boosting learning retention.
