Kahoot is a game based system. Quizzes,  jumbles, surveys, and discussion are the part of Kahoot. They are all so enjoyable and attractive. Teachers can prepare multiple-choice questions and project these questions on the screen. Thereafter, students can answer these questions with their smartphones or tablets.

POWTOON

Powtoon is a website where people can prepare animated presentations. Presentations are text-filled, boring, and ordinary; therefore, the audience loses their attention after some time.  on the other hand, there is a Powtoon which allows users to add props, shape, music, moving backgrounds, imagines, and characters. Besides, you can record your voice and add it the Powtoon presentation. Users can create entertaining, attractive, and quality presentations or animations. Powtoon will attract learners' attention and they will be excited about the new way of presentation. So, teachers will involve and reach more students with the help of Powtoon.
Moreover, it can develop the creativity of students.
Also, it is so easy to create an animation or a presentation in Powtoon.
