Playing Jeopardy in the Classroom: An Empirical Study
Simkin, Mark G.
Journal of Information Systems Education, v24 n3 p203-210 Fall 2013
Playing TV game shows such as "Jeopardy" or "Survivor" in the classroom can be fun. But does it improve student understanding of course concepts? To find out, the author conducted eight experimental trials in five separate undergraduate information systems classes. Although he found limited improvement in student learning, the author's experiences with the game and the results of a student survey were positive.
