Do you have issues with students using their cell phones

 What is Kahoot?
When did it start- September 2013

Where did it start- Norway

Why did it start- unlock the deepest potential of each and every learner, through
engagement built on the founding principles: Social, Play and Learning

Who started it - several talented entrepreneurs – Johan Brand, Jamie Brooker and Morten
Versvik – put their heads together to make learning awesome. In a joint project with the
Norwegian University of Technology and Science, they teamed up with Professor Alf Inge
Wang, and were later joined by Norwegian entrepreneur Åsmund Furuseth.
