Jeopardy

   I made my Jeopardy game lesson on the Civil War. I find that with all the generals and battles involved this is a great area for a game to help the students remember who goes where. As far as the setup for this activity, I thought that it was great and easy to follow. I had a lot of fun trying to make the questions, because I kept putting the information in the wrong slots and I would have to change it around. As far as the teaching standards apply, I thought that this exercise applied to many areas for me. I was able to engage in personal growth by learning a new skill, which has been the case for much of the semester already. In addition, I believe that it drove home the second standard of designing digital aged learning experiences. It also incorporates a different learning tool that is not as boring as just reading the text so it gets the students involved. I have provided my link below if you want to go and check it out for yourself. As always thanks for logging on to the blog.
