“Zep” Is A Video Game-Like Site Similar To Wayground, Blooket & Kahoot

 

Zep is a new-to-me learning game site that has lots of similarities to the usual suspects – Wayground, Blooket and Kahoot.

I first heard about when reading a study that found playing it helped with student motivation (there is similar research available for most of the online gaming platforms).

The main difference – at least, as it appears to me – is that its game interface tries to be much more like a video game – and there are many different “maps” (video game formats) to choose from.

There’s a free account that lets you create and play games, but just not with as many different video game formats.

Personally, when I was in the classroom, I paid for the premium accounts of Wayground (then Quizizz) and Blooket, and that worked out fine for my students.  I still use them with the elementary school students I now tutor weekly.  The free accounts for the others functioned as a periodic change of pace.
