Quizlet

Quizlet is a game tool for language training, a test tool and a quiz. Since it is a so-called scale tool, you can adapt the content and level of difficulty to your students’ needs. There are several different games / activities as well as a self-correcting test built into Quizlet, but for them to work, you need to enter the words, concepts or phrases that you want your students to practice. You must also provide each word / phrase with a definition either in the form of a verbal description or a picture. There is an image bank in Quizlet, but you can also upload your own images.

Quizlet is an educational digital tool that is a fantastic resource for individuals’ learning. Quizlet is a varied tool for learning words, phrases and grammar. Quizlet is interactive, multimodal, self-correcting and adaptable.

Once you have created your own Quizlet account, you can also start searching for other people’s finished games and dictionaries and save them and use them. There, Quizlet works in the same way as e.g., Kahoot.
