The purpose of this article was to present an approach to applying the Kahoot! platform to enhance participatory learning in cultural lectures. It emphasize shifting the role of cultural facilitators from traditional one - way transmitters of knowledge to designers of interactive learning processes suitable for learners in the digital era (2000 - present), whose behaviors are rapidly evolving in terms of interests, technological engagement, and demand for interactivity. Kahoot! serves as a digital tool that promotes learner participation and can be integrated before, during, and after lectures to stimulate interest, assess understanding, and review content in an enjoyable, game-based format that motivates learners. Drawing on relevant theories and practical insights, the author proposed the K - CIR Model, comprising four components: Knowledge Activation, Cultural Content Design, Interactive Engagement, and Reflective Assessment. This conceptual framework offered a systematic method for fostering meaningful and engaging cultural learning experiences across diverse contexts.
The findings suggested that applying Kahoot! in cultural education not only increases learner engagement but also supports facilitators in adopting interactive methods and strengthening their digital literacy. This article contributed to the development of instructional strategies by integrating digital tools with cultural content, highlighting the potential of Kahoot! to promote cultural awareness, learner motivation, and educational innovation in the contemporary era.
