Self-shipped
Tappetizer
A Jackbox-style party game platform built for classrooms.
01
The problem
Students check out during review and downtime.
Review sessions and the spare minutes between lessons are where students disengage most — heads down, half-listening, waiting for the bell. Teachers needed something low-effort that could turn those dead pockets of class time into something students actually wanted to participate in.
02
The idea
Jackbox energy, built for a classroom.
My husband teaches and I asked him about activities he already ran in class. I abstracted what he described into a handful of interaction models that could hold different content. I originally scoped this as a teacher view and a student view, but realized teachers run class off a projector via slides, not their own device, so a presentation view was added.
Outcomes
In actual classrooms — not a pitch deck.
In class
Teachers using it as part of real lessons, not a demo
Play again
A student asked their teacher if they could do it another time
