antwoordronde

Answoordronde is a Dutch term that literally translates to “answer round.” It refers to a specific stage in quiz shows, debate programs, or interactive audience segments where participants are invited to give their final answers or responses after having received all necessary information. The concept is used in various televised game shows, such as the long-running Dutch quiz series "Kassa" and the French adaptation of "Who Wants to Be a Millionaire?" where the Betalingsfase (payment phase) provides a similar structure in which contestants must confirm or revise their previous choices.

In a typical antwoordronde, contestants are given a brief pause to reflect on additional facts that were presented during the earlier parts of the show. Their responses are then recorded: they may be asked to confirm their earlier choice, elaborate on a particular point, or provide a concluding statement that will ultimately determine the outcome of the competition. The format is designed to test contestants’ memory retention, quick thinking, and ability to synthesize information under time pressure.

The answer round has also found application outside of television. In classroom settings, teachers sometimes use a structured antwoordronde at the end of a lesson to check students’ understanding before moving on to the next topic. By allowing brief reflection followed by a concise response, the method promotes active learning and reinforces key concepts.

Overall, the antwoordronde serves as a concise, high‑stakes checkpoint in both entertainment and educational contexts, ensuring that participants have absorbed essential information before delivering a final answer.
