Customizing the Quiz Show Template
The Blank Quiz Show Review is ready for you to customize. This presentation is designed to be a review for a unit. You make up the categories, questions and answers, then show the review to your class using a scan converter or projector. All the hyperlinks connecting the points on slide two to the correct questions have already been created. Once you have created one review, you can give the blank PowerPoint show and these directions to students and assign them to create the next review. Students, in groups of five, can make up 5 questions each: one for each category, or each in charge of a category of their own.
1. Double-click on the quiz show template file “Blank Quiz Show Review” to open it.
2. Click on File and Save As to give the quiz show template a new file name. This way you can save the blank copy to use again.
3. Change the view to Slide Sorter from the View Menu.
4. From the Edit menu, choose Replace. In the first line of the box that appears, type Topic 1, then tab to the second line. Type in your first category name. Click on the Replace All button. You should get a message that 11 changes were made, and you should be able to see the changes in the slides.

Provide each team with a flashlight, whistle, or other means of "buzzing-in" to indicate they know the answer.
Appoint a scorekeeper.
Appoint a reader to read each question to the group.
The teacher or a student can act as moderator.
Let the first team select a category.
Once the question pops up, the first team to "buzz-in" gets to try to answer the question.
Add or deduct the number of points corresponding to the number they selected under the category.
If the first team misses, the remaining teams can buzz-in and answer the question.
