You probably have used some sort of a Jeopardy Game template in your classroom to review for a test, or quiz your class on various topics. I used to think PowerPoint was the best, but adding all the slides took a really long time, and all the clicking from slide to slide was tiresome.
Be sure to download and use this. I hope this saves you time and helps your students have fun while learning!
This is an improvement on my previous version. Here is what is included in the upgrade:
- Audio help files to help you navigate all the features.
- One page question, answer, and value entry. You can now change the value of the questions if you’d like to create a Double Jeopardy board.
- Up to 5 teams can play at once to make it more interactive and engaging for the whole class.
- Scores are kept for each team, correct answers get positive points, incorrect answers lose points.
- Final Jeopardy allows teams to wager available points.
- The Jeopardy theme music is available to heighten the excitement of the final Jeopardy question.
- There is a reset button to reset all the scores if you’d like to play the same board with multiple groups.
- There is a reset button to delete all the questions and team names.
- There is a reset button to add sample data to assist you in remembering where questions, answers, and team names go.
- There is a “read me” resource available further explaining some tips and hints, including the need to allow macros.
The first time that I saw this was 5 years ago, while I was student teaching. I LOVED it then, and I still do.
Cool! What other cool tech are you using in your classroom?
