I integrate a variety of websites and their activities in my classroom. I think it helps keep students from getting bored (or at least slows the process) of the same online activities. I have been using Quizizz for about two years now.
One part I don't like as much about Quizizz (and many other online activities) is that when students are done, they do not have a copy of their practice questions. They don't have a page of examples in their notes to review like I would have when I was a student in pre-one-on-one-technology days.
So I have found a solution. Sometimes when we do Quizizz, I print out a copy of the activity ahead of time, one for each student. Then when I start the Quizizz, I make sure to set it so that the questions stay in the same order. (I don't worry about the answer options staying in order; I just warn students that those may be different.)
My students are then responsible for marking down the right answer in their printout and making a note of any questions they missed. At the end they can check again with the answers Quizizz provides to make sure they have everything, but also they write down any notes they might want about the questions. They also can ask for me clarification on questions that are still giving them trouble, and I think they are more likely to ask for help with a paper in front of them instead of having to scroll down to see their missed questions.
