It is a quiz game. This is a great way to engage and encourage student participation. I can test students on anything and see who is doing well with certain questions and who is struggling with certain questions. This game makes test taking exciting because it is technology based and interactive. Students know right away if they got the answer correct or incorrect. It motivates students to try hard as their is a game aspect of earning points to win first, second, or third place.

I would use collaboration when it comes to creating classroom rules and expectations. I think this is a great way for students to feel apart of the classroom. Also, students will have to sign the contract once they create the rules. This will make more aware of what the rules are and more likely to follow them. I will also use positive reinforcement. For example, if they model a positive behavior or work hard than I will reward them for that.
