Week 3 Eoc: Jeopardy- challenges and Opportunities

This is probably one of the easiest, hardest books to read. The information is there but its hard to follow along. So with this Jeopardy game assignment this book kind of makes it very challenging. Some of the definitions to the words are kind of long and drawn out, and at times can be very hard to understand at first. For example, one of the words I used for the Jeopardy game was Patent Thickets, and the definition is “A patent thicket is a collection of patents often owned by different companies that must be licensed in order to commercialize a new technology.” So with the making this game it is hard to come up with a answer that doesn’t bring up the name of the word or term. Also another challenge that is going along with this game is trying to come up with or figure out the topics or categories for each list of questions. So of course the categories and questions have to run together. For example, if a category was Fees; then the questions and answers should have to deal with or involve fees. Another challenge with doing this game is coming up with the different difficulties for each price range or cost. So making hundred dollar questions easy then working all the way up to the five hundred dollar in the difficulty is hard. But some of the pluses with doing this assignment this way is that, we don’t really have to read all hundred and some odd pages of definitions. And this way we can focus on the game but at the same time learn most of the definitions. So I am very happy that we are doing this assignment or reading with this game.
