Jeopardy games

Today we learned different ways to review for a class by using Jeopardy on the web with Jeapardy Labs and also in powerpoint. Here is a link to Jeapardy Labs. Jeapardy Labs is basically text based compared to creating a jeopardy in powerpoint where we and inserting media and insert different graphics. By using powerpoint we are able to insert sounds and graphics to make our jeopardy game more fun and interesting to my students.
Todays activity relates to teaching standard

2c) customize and personalize learning activities to address students' diverse learning styles, working strategies, and abilities using digital tools and resources.

I could use todays activity to help my students review for a test while keeping their full attention because they want to win the game. This can also be used to customize a Jeopardy game to catch my students attention by using a different approach then the normal "writing on the blackboard setting."
