Ask a generative AI tool to create a gamified set of questions for a specific standard or topic with point or monetary values that reflect the depth or challenge level of the specific question.Use that set of questions for a Jeopardy game, in a Google Form, or in another platform like Quizizz.If you have it organize the questions, answers, and point values correctly, you can easily turn them into a spreadsheet upload for Quizizz or Blooket.Quizizz - use AI features to generate questions from topics, uploaded documents, articles, etc or use the AI feature to change questions to being a “real-world scenario.”Gimkit - gimkit.comQuizlet Live - quizlet.com/liveKahoot - kahoot.comQuizlet - quizlet.comBlooket - blooket.comSave your generative AI prompts so that you can copy and paste them and continue refining them!
