Overcoming Apathy and Classroom Disconnect in Marketing Courses: Employing Karaoke Jeopardy as a Content Retention Tool

Abstract

Instructors cope with lack of content retention due to apathy and disinterest displayed by students toward their courses. Short attention spans coupled with a lack of active involvement on the part of students can lead to poor performance on exams. We introduce an in-class exam review game that couples karaoke with the popular trivia game show Jeopardy. Results suggest that the implementation of Karaoke Jeopardy as a review tool for exams improves student retention of course content leading to improved student performance.
