While many schools look forward to reopening this fall—either full-time with social distancing or with a mix of classroom-based and virtual learning—building a sense of community where students and teachers are connected and engaged will be key to navigating these transitions effectively. This integration makes it easy for both educators and students to add their favorite looping video GIFs and animated stickers to learning games right from the kahoot creator, adding personality and a new visual dynamic to users’ content.

Bringing next-level engagement to educators and learners worldwide

“As many schools around the world prepare for a very different back-to-school season in this unique year, we know that educators, students and families are looking for fresh, engaging ways to connect with each other and bring joy to learning,” said Eilert Hanoa, CEO, Kahoot!. “GIPHY is one of the most widely-used and beloved sources of visual content to bring fun to conversations everywhere.
