I found and used this really cool software last year. It's a way to set up a jeopardy game to be from a computer. You get to set up the board, the amounts, the questions, and the answers. And it's totally free. Here is where I found the software:
I generally use it at the end of a lot of information as a fun way to see who has retained what. I put the students into teams of like 2 to 3 students and give them a small white board slate and marker. Each team takes a turn picking a category and amount. When I click on that amount, a question appears on the board. I will read that question out loud. They then write down what they think is the answer and hold it up for me to read. The first team to hold up the correct answer wins those points. I keep track of points either on my own slate, or on the front board. At the end, whatever team had the most points gets a "homework pass" that can be used for one homework assignment.
