A more sophisticated program complete with color graphics and optional sound was developed by Apple II computers by Innovative Communications in 1987 to accompany their Energina series at the junior high school level.
Electrivity, an interactive program that combines a Jeopardy-type game with supporting tutorials. Based on information in the Electricity Choices reference series, the game makes a great self-contained lesson or can be used to accompany any unit on electricity. To play the game, students select the category and difficulty level from 25 squares. Will it be fuels that burn, wind and water, solar, nuclear or power management? The computer randomly chooses a multiple choice question. If the correct answer is chosen, points are awarded. The tutorials include all the information on which the game is based plus true/false mini-games.
(The NEED Project has a non-computerized version of Jeopardy.)
