I tried Quizlet Live today to review the terms from the first unit in Excel. Let me say I was pleasantly surprised at the excitement and participation from the students. It was loud, but it was chatter only about the topic of excel. I felt quite giddy that they were yelling terms out like, "spreadsheet", "name box" , "cell". There was lots of encouragement from eachother to pick the right answer since they would fall back in the scoreboard if they missed. A couple students asked if we can do this everyday. My response, "Of course we can't but we certaintly can for review!" My review on Quizlet is that its simple to set up, fun and engaging, and truley a win in my book.I really liked that out of the 3 in each group they had different answers on their computers and had to decide which student had the right answer. The only issue we had was I have desktop computers so you can't sit by your assigned group. But I actually liked it that they were having to find a way to communicate with each other from a distance. Most of the students got up and moved around or spoke with eachother to narrow down their choice. So don't take my word for it, try it! See the video I took in class today!
