For a few dollars more, instructors can upgrade to buzzers that light up in addition to making a sound. Learning Resources Answer Buzzers is a set of four buzzers costing $15-$20, each with a distinctive sound to distinguish which player responds first. Among the multitude of buzzers out there, the following three had solid reviews on Amazon and other sites. Though smartphone apps are convenient, nothing beats the satisfaction of smacking a red button. We looked at several other apps but cannot recommend them because they either had poor reviews or were unable to connect multiple devices wirelessly. Because it may require more troubleshooting that may impact already-limited class time, Trivia Bowl Buzzer is our runner-up application. Compared with the Trivia Bowl Buzzer, however, Speed Quizzing was more complicated to set up and devices often had difficulty connecting. This app is free for up to four devices in demo mode, $30 per event for up to 32 devices, but there is a free, six-month educational trial for classroom instructors.

Speed Quizzing is a similar buzzer application that unlike the Trivia Bowl Buzzer, is available for both Android and Apple users. However, if playing in teams, the game requires only one team representative to have the app downloaded on his device.
One drawback is that the app is only available for download on Apple devices (iPhones, iPads, and iPods), excluding Android and non-smartphone users. The Trivia Bowl Buzzer is inexpensive ($3.99 for the game host and free for all other players) and a fun way for people to test their knowledge in the classroom. A sound and vibration indicate the first person to buzz in, and the “game host,” (the professor overseeing the game) can see on her device the order in which the players have responded.
Our current recommendation for a smartphone buzzer app is the Trivia Bowl Buzzer, an app that uses Bluetooth to connect up to 16 Apple devices at a time. For a simple summary, scroll to the bottom of the page. How can we best replicate the lively, competitive atmosphere of a real quiz show in the classroom? In this review we look at both smartphone applications and physical buzzers to take classroom quiz bowls to the next level. Playing Jeopardy or having a review game in class is an entertaining and low-stakes way for students to test their understanding of topics and identify any gaps to fill before an upcoming exam.
