Why
The facilitators, Laurie Fleming, Julie Coen, and Angela Susca, are really innovative when it comes to different ways of engagement, so I was very excited when Laurie asked me to build them a game. I wanted them to be able to edit the questions and answers on the fly without an internet connection, so I chose to do the project in PowerPoint.
