Abstract
The television game show "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" has been adapted for use in a classroom setting to heighten the interest of students and the instructor. The technique enhances interaction between students and instructor and can be used as a review method or as a way of presenting new material. Individual students are given an opportunity to answer multiple-choice questions orally, with the possibility of receiving help from the class at large. Ideas for possible topics are presented.
