The use of mobile technologies and applications provides teachers a wide range of possibilities, both, in the teaching process and the assessment for learning. Nowadays, there are several applications to support the whole teaching-learning process, such as Kahoot, Socrative, Plickers, Gosoapbox, iClicker, etc. In this context, this paper aims at describing the potential of Quizizz as a valuable tool in education, taking into consideration that the use of quiz-type applications, if well planned, can motivate students, drawing their attention to achieve better results in the classroom.
