Results of the Jeopardy Game Show




The objectives of the jeopardy we held last May 29, 2012 were the following:

l.  To test the knowledge or the amount of work put into the slideshare viewing assignment;
2.  To test the appetite of the students to risk;
3.  In the second jeopardy, the find out how well groups can strategize.

Since this was open books, notes, laptop, in actuality it was a test of who had faster computer, and who had better strategy of navigating the computer to find the answer.

I hope everybody had fun and lots of learning too.

Congratulations to group l.  they were quiet and conservative.

Congratulations to Group 4 for being aggressive and  a go getter.  We need  a lot of that in
entrepr4neurship  (It simply shows that in entrepreneurship, you have to keep trying, experimenting, you may may make up a lot of mistakes, but it is important to get up fight another day, and recover.
