Put in key psychology terms/ topic areas etc. Department have tried to work out how to create this but lack the knowledge. The department requires a blank game so that they can copy it and use it in lots of areas, putting in the terms they want.
The department require 12 x terms 8 of which are correct for a particular topic. Students to come to whiteboard and touch ones they think are correct. The game tells them how many are correct and they then have a time limit, say, 2 mins to try and unselect the ones chosen to change and then see how many are right etc.
Would be good to have a countdown clock with sound for right and wrong answer.
