Student-generated questions can help promote a deeper learning of content, as students must both reflect on what they have learned and then contemplate how to create an appropriate question from that knowledge. This can also be a teachable moment as you are able to critically analyze question submissions as a class, and decide which questions stay or go prior to playing the game.
