Statins and Atherosclerosis Quiz

Jeopardy game which acts as a comprehensive assessment tool and evaluates advanced knowledge of cardiovascular pharmacology and biochemistry. It is specifically tailored for upper-level undergraduate or graduate-level university students in pharmacy, medicine, or biomedical sciences.

Features a fully functional, variable-driven Jeopardy board with 3 distinct categories (Foundational Biochemistry, Cellular Pathophysiology, Advanced Molecular Dynamics) and tiered point values (100 to 500).

Responsibilities

Instructional Design:

⏵Engineered a Jeopardy-style matrix, mapping question complexity directly to point values (100 to 500)

⏵Risk/Reward Gamification: Designed a dual-consequence scoring logic that rewards correct answers and penalizes misconceptions by subtracting points.

eLearning Development:

⏵Programmed user scores update in real-time based on conditional logic.

⏵Developed advanced triggers and true/false variables to track visited questions, automatically disabling used buttons and altering their visual states to ensure a seamless, non-linear user experience.

⏵Built a board layout with distraction-free biochemical background, question screens, and automated feedback loops.

Target Audience

• Upper-level undergraduate and graduate-level university students in pharmacy or medicine

• Biomedical sciences students studying cardiovascular pharmacology and biochemistry.

• Medical professionals or researchers looking for a comprehensive knowledge assessment.

Impact

• Promotes Critical Thinking: Moves away from flat, simple memorization by forcing advanced students to evaluate their confidence before answering complex scientific questions.

• Drives High Engagement: Transforms a dense, intimidating academic topic (statins and atherosclerosis) into an engaging, interactive review session.

• Pinpoints Knowledge Gaps: Uses a risk/reward scoring mechanism that actively highlights deep-seated misconceptions by penalizing incorrect answers..

Challenges

• Scientific Accuracy: Simplifying complex biochemical pathways and pharmacological mechanisms into concise, objective questions suitable for a game-show format without losing academic rigor.
