New Review Game

In addition to the review quiz posted earlier, Larry Ferlazzo's blog alerted me to some new "make your own game" sites. So here's another one for you created in W2L (What 2 Learn) and based on the final exam questions.

Penquins in Peril: Introduction to Technology in Education

See Larry's "Best" lists here! You'll find some new favorites! And you might want to bookmark or subscribe to his blog!

BTW, I made at least one error in putting this game together....10 bonus points if you are the first to post it in a comment below!

Here are some other games created by others on W2L that will help you review and show you what else you might create using the free game-creator tool:

• Outputs and Inputs (hangman)
• Technology Hardware (hangman)
• Input Devices (short answer)
• Storage Devices (scrambled letters)
• Software (short answer quiz)
• Storage (for one or two players - short answers)

You might want to consider creating an online game or quiz for your final project. "Given ten random questions in an online game about ____________, the student will answer 90% of them or more correctly." What better way to meet that objective? This would be the knowledge level in Bloom's taxonomy.

Semester Review Quiz

A semester review quiz is now available online to help you get ready for the final exam. Most of the questions will come from your textbook.

Teacher Personality Quiz

Office Depot is offering a Teacher Personality Quiz. What kind of teacher are you? It's only 5 questions long....and I've got to say, they were spot on with me!
Together with Expo (the marker and dry erase board people), Office Depot is also sponsoring a classroom makeover contest. View the finalists, read what the teacher-finalists and their students think would make for a great classroom, and vote for your choice. You can vote through March 8. Who knows? Someday it may be YOUR turn for a classroom makeover!

Google Challenge

A Twitter message (technically, I guess, a "tweet") led me to a class in S. E. Asia that is learning more about technology in the classroom. The instructor, Jeff Utecht, offers students a Google Quiz. How are your searching skills now that you've completed the searching assignment for eme2040? Take the quiz to find out!
