Three Ways to Create Jeopardy-style Games

On Friday I shared a video about how to create and play Jeopardy-style game on the Factile platform. There are other good options for creating and playing Jeopardy review games in your classroom.

On eQuizShow you can build and display your quiz completely online. To build your quiz just enter a title, an administrative password, and your question categories. eQuizShow will then generate a grid on which you can enter questions and answers. If you don’t have time to build a quiz or you just need some inspiration, browse the eQuizShow gallery. When you play the games you have the option to assign points to up to six teams playing the game. You can also play without awarding points.

FlipQuiz is a site that makes it easy for teachers to create and display Jeopardy-style review games. To create a game just register for a free account then select “new board.” Your new board will have six columns and five rows, but you do not have to use all of the columns and rows and you can add or subtract questions at any time. To create your questions simply type in the question and answer boxes. When you’re ready to use your game click the “presentation view” to display it through a projector. Try a demo quiz on the FlipQuiz homepage to see how the presentation view works. FlipQuiz is no longer available (November, 2020 update). 

Flippity offers a dozen Google Sheets templates that you can quickly modify to fit your needs. One of those templates is a Jeopardy game template. In the following video I demonstrate how to use the template.
