I had the awesome experience of using Breakout EDU in a professional development workshop. I knew right away that it was exactly what our students needed to take learning to the next level. Our students love games and working collaboratively. Breakout EDU will challenge them with a new way of learning. Students work collaboratively to solve puzzles and "break out" by figuring out the codes for the different locks in the game. Students demonstrate their content knowledge to unlock the box which makes learning fun and challenges them to critically think by unraveling puzzles, finding hidden clues and keys, and persevering to solve complex problems. Our 21st century learners need Breakout EDU activities to collaborate and facilitate problem solving. I am requesting to purchase six Breakout EDU boxes to use with different subjects. This number of boxes would keep groups small to increase student involvement in the activities.
