1.) Explain why you choose this technology tool to incorporate into your (future) classroom.
Technology tool： Kahoot https://kahoot.com
Reason: I chose this technology to incorporate into my classroom because it provides a fun and engaging way for students to learn. It is a game-based platform that allows instructors to create games for any subject and provide students with quizzes (Kahoot, n.d.). Students can play these games individually or individually, virtually or in person. This makes learning exciting, engaging, and fun. In addition, Kahoot is a free platform and can be easily accessed by all students. All they need is an internet connection and electronic devices, which they can use at home or in the classroom.

2.) Please explain each picture: how does this strategy benefit students?
Multiple choice: This picture represents a live game that includes questions with multiple answers. The students are provided with questions that have more than one correct answer.

The feature limits guesswork; the more correct answers the students pick, the higher the score (Wang, 2017).
True and false: This picture represents a live quiz game where the instructor creates a statement and asks the students whether it is true or false. Rather than click on an individual answer, the students must choose between true and false. This feature allows students to quickly and easily choose the answer they consider correct. They do not need to think long and hard to get rewarded for the right choice (Wang, 2017).
