E-Learning Bingo Games #339: Challenge | Recap
Buzzword bingo games offer a playful way to poke fun at one’s industry by highlighting overused buzzwords and catchphrases. Not only do the games give insiders a chance to commiserate over the misuse of meaningful concepts, but they also help newbies identify general terms and areas they should learn more about. It’s a win-win for everyone!
Since our industry’s largest conference is just around the corner, it’s a perfect time to create our E-Learning Buzzword Bingo cards. But first, let's look at some examples of interactive bingo games from our challenge five years ago.
Pantone Color of the Year Bingo

One of the things I like about the challenge is how the community inspires and supports one another. After viewing Jackie's example, Ridvan created a version that leveraged layout ideas from Jackie's example. Ridvan's game features a comic-themed design and includes a countdown timer and sound effects.
