Instructions for Using this Game Template All of the slides you will need for a twenty-five question review game are included in this PowerPoint template and all of the navigational hyperlinks that allow the user to move between the main game screen and the individual question screens are pre-defined as well. To make a customized game, do the following: 1.While working in the “Normal” or “Slide” view, you may edit the main game slide and each of the slides that contain the individual questions and answers. On the first slide, you may edit the names of the individual categories and the heading at the top of the screen. On each question slide, replace the sample question text placeholders with the specific question you wish to pose and type the proper answer in the corresponding answer box near the bottom of each slide. 2.An open space has purposely been created below the “question” portion of each slide to allow for the insertion of a video clip from the unitedstreaming™ video library or a digital image from the unitedstreaming™ Image Library. Remember to save all such video and image files to your game project folder before you insert them into your slides—this will insure that all resources will display properly when you play the game. 3.It is recommended that you set video clips to play automatically when you insert them into the individual question/answer slides. Remember that during the game, you can click within the confines of the movie clip at any time to pause the clip and wait for a student response. 4.In order to “reset” the game and restore the appearance of the main game slide, just close the file and re-open it again to begin a new game.
