2. Gimkit is today’s revelation and
very suited for gamifiying our
classroom. This game app lets
teachers build quizzes students have
to solve. They call themselves a
game show for the classroom that
requires knowledge, collaboration,
and strategy to win. Students
answer questions on their device at
their own pace. Throughout a Kit,
students will get exposure to the
questions multiple times to ensure
mastery.
Here’s the “gamification-
factor” about Gimkit:
students earn in-game cash
by answering questions
correctly. But be careful,
an incorrect answer will cost
them! Students can reinvest
their earned digital money
by purchasing upgrades
and powerups that suit
their strengths.

automatically. Gimkit eventually generates a report detailing what our students need help on.

their own learning! Your class builds the Kit
by each student contributing a question.
Homework
Gimkit isn't only used in a live class setting. You can use Gimkit for homework
assignments which are graded automatically.
5. The number of players that can join a game of Gimkit can depend on internet reliability and
stability. As more players join a game, a faster and more reliable connection will be required to
keep up with all the players. That being said, we do have some hard limits on how many
players can join a game.
The hard limit for the number of students that can join a live game of Gimkit is 500 students.
