I often don't have access to the adaptive learning tools.  I have used PowerPoints that show a spinner and select a number to drive games like Jeopardy! in the classroom.  I have the stundents take some time to select questons from the material, then we assign each student a number and go through the numbers - and each student asks their question and the others get to answer it.

anybody got any other things they use to gamify their classroom?

@rmenke I too found many mistakes in the book PowerPoints, which seem to be made "after-the-fact" by contractors in low cost countries. 

I have moved to going through the PowerPoints, using SmartArt to brighten the slides, and reducing the wordiness and correcting the grammar.  But, in my IT classes,it si more important to have good exercises than slides.
