Directions for Playing
Transportation Jeopardy

·Jeopardy is actually a PowerPoint presentation taking on game-like features. After you download the game, you will already be in the Slide Show.

·Divide the class either into two teams, or groups of teams. Have captains for each team that will decide which problem will be chosen.

·Just select the point value and it will take you to that question. Have the students answer the question in a given time. (We have found that about 10 seconds works well.) The point value should change color since it is a hyperlink. This will let you know that particular question has already been answered.

·There are two daily doubles in the game. These questions are worth double the points.

·After the given time period, just click anywhere on that slide and it will take you to the correct answer.

·Assign a scorekeeper. Sometimes it may be the teacher, if teams are even.

·To get back to the main page, just select the house in the lower right-hand corner.

·It is now the next team's turn. Just repeat the above steps.

·The team with the most points is declared the WINNER.

·The entire game can be played in a class period.
