Political Debate Bingo

I went to the Digital humanities conference at Wayne State on Friday, September 30th and one of the many interesting presentations that I sat through was one that looked at popular Bingo's that make political statements. Many of them focused on Sexism however, there were a vast array of topics included. It was discussed that the bingos are not generally used for play, but more of a discussion starter and they are generally read and shared by those that agree on the topics. I thought it would be interesting to make one for the next political debate to see how accurate I am on topics that will be discussed.

  1. Oh, I was wondering what this was about! I attended Panel D and was watching all the Bingo tweets and trying to figure out what on earth I was missing in the other room. I'm not sure about the political Bingo, though... I think your card would be blacked out before the second round...

  3. I hadn't thought of these as a mode of communication before, but I have used them for a multitude of starting or plenary activities within the classroom - they are so adaptable and the kids engage really well with it.
