The basic steps include uploading your images, rearranging them in the order you want, adding a title, setting a speed, adding optionally adding descriptions and music.

The viewer have several seconds to answer the question and then they are presented with the right answer. As the teacher you don't see a record of the students answers, but it can be a nice review. I especially like the idea of having students come up with these questions and making these slide shows on their own and then sharing them out with the class.
