Existing Jeopardy Game Sample Clauses

Existing Jeopardy Game. There has already been some research on including Jeopardy! in the classroom, even in the accounting field. One example is the game that Xxxxxx (2005) made for a governmental accounting class. His game is a computer-based, active-learning and self-assessment tool and if the content is developed by students themselves, it creates the opportunity to learn how to work effectively in a team. He used spreadsheet software (Excel and Word) instead of PowerPoint. The content of the game was made by students using Word and it was afterwards edited by the instructor. There were also some other boards that were made by a faculty member and they were made available online to the students. In his game, he made use of the same board as in the original game and the higher dollar values on the board correspond with higher level learning questions. In the Word version they made use of hyperlinks that referenced to other MS Word files with the answer and question in it. Note that in the Word-based game the original sound files were included. Xxxxxx (2005) made use of a survey for his research on the Word-based game. The survey existed out of 77 students. He made use of a five-point Likert scale and open-ended questions to make the answers of the students more clear.
