    • \n
\n

negative

\n
    \n
  • is distractive (more gaming than learning), content can't be too difficult
    • \n
  • not suitable for older students or complex questions
    • \n
\n

Suggested for what kinds of terminology

\n
    \n
  • players can compete in answering questions, need to be easy as it's more about gaming than learning - test / quiz / competition - e.g. examples fact or opinion, for neutral & bias texts or headlines (examples), easy multiple-choice-questions like "what is not a search engine", "what is not social media platform" "who is not a trustworthy source…"
