Playing Jeopardy:
Decide if it is important that you follow the traditional format of Jeopardy with being given the
answer first, and the students have to come up with the question or whether you will give the
student the question and they have to come up with the answer. Edit your slides accordingly
and instruct the students accordingly.
Decide if you will play it the traditional Jeopardy format where the person/team getting the
right answer, gets to choose the next points question. If you do that, some students may get
shut out and give up. Or, just take turns between the teams.
Decide if the team choosing the points question gets 60 seconds to come up with the right
answer before letting other teams guess or leave it wide open to whoever raises their hands
first.
