PowerPoint Jeopardy

Creating Jeopardy In PowerPoint

Let The Games Begin!

  1. Begin a blank project and choose a "Title Slide".
    Start With Blank Project
  2. The below picture is your goal! The numbers (100, 200, etc.) are hyperlinks, which is why they're underlined. The boxes and lines were made with the Drawing Toolbar, and the Jeopardy sign was made using Word-Art. You learned all of this stuff in your last three lessons. Now it's time to use it! Your first slide should be a Blank Slide
    hello
  3. Change the color scheme so that it works for Jeopardy. If you don't remember how to do this, find out here.
    hello
  4. The background, accent, and accent followed hyperlink should all be set to blue (the final piece is set to blue so that hyperlinks that were already visited will look as if they've disappeared after they've been chosen). Also, the Text N Lines, Title Text, and Accent N Hyperlink should all be set to yellow.
    hello
  5. This is the color of blue I chose for the background, accent, and accent followed hyperlink.
    hello
  6. This is the color of yellow I chose for the Text N Lines, Title Text, and Accent N Hyperlink.
    hello
  7. This is what your first slide should initially look like. Remember to set the inside color of your rectangles to "No Fill". Also, think about how you can use Copy and Paste to save time making all of those rectangles and all of those columns of stuff.
    hello
  8. Below is a picture of one of the 15 question slides that you'll have to create. Use a bulleted list slide to create all 15 of the question slides (each slide corresponds to one of the boxes on the main Jeopardy page).
    hello
  9. The data for each slide is listed below in the format TITLE : BULLETED QUESTION

  10. Now you have to provide answers to all of those questions that were asked. Make a text box that has the answer for the question in each slide. Then choose a custom animation for that answer. The answer should appear when you click your mouse button. If you aren't sure how to do that, you might want to look for the answer here.
    hello
  11. Now it's time to make hyperlinks to each of the questions from the first slide. Highlight text to create hyperlinks, then right click on the text and set it to link to the correct slide. This should be easy enough to do if you followed the last tutorial completely.
    hello hello
  12. Finally, use the Master Slide to create a link back to the starting page. As long as you followed the last tutorial, this should be a piece of cake. Once U R done, view the slide show and check out your masterpiece!
    hello
  13. Save the file as mynamejeopardy.ppt, where myname is replaced with YOUR ACTUAL NAME. Make sure that THE FILE IS ONE WORD.
