SURVIVOR JEOPARDY
The “Jeopardy” activity will be a part of four workshops that will be held during the first three weeks of Fall Semester, 2005. The fourth will be held the week of Oct. 20, the week which includes the last day to drop a class. The developmental classes that meet at the 10:00 A.M. hour will be a part of this activity. Though it is to be used in a workshop setting, this activity could be easily adapted to a classroom setting. For example, it would be an excellent means to review before a test on major concepts.
