The FlipQuiz interface is easy to use and the design is clean and attractive. You can add more or fewer categories than Jeopardy. Games can be played as a class, or if students have laptops or are in the lab, they can be played collaboratively or competitively. Questions can be printed, too.
The free version allows you to use a question timer, to double points, and to change from the large font to a smaller size if your questions are more complex. (The paid version adds a team scoring feature that is nice, but not essential, and allows image uploads.)
Steps:
1. Sign up for a free account
2. Create your own boards using the easy editor
3. Present to your class
2= Click “Copy Link” to get a hyperlink to put on Canvas or to share with others.
3 = Click the green clock to use a question timer.
Example: Here’s a board I created for an end-of-session Intermediate Grammar class that reviews the six topics we’d studied that session. When you first open the board, I recommend changing the Aesthetic Settings options (to see the Settings , see#1 on the board image on the previous page) options by choosing “Smaller Questions.”
