My Project

Escape rooms are one of the biggest trends in entertainment today. Groups gather in a themed room where they are given a clue to get started. Participants have one hour to find clues and solve escape the room puzzle games before time is up. The experience is often described as stepping into a live video game.

All throughout an escape room experience students are faced with many challenges which encourage them to work together and use their communication skills around the puzzles.

This activity boosts this creative process and supports the development of innovation and problem-solving skills as well as favoring learning, improving attitudes and social skills, and involving students with the subject and teamwork.

These escape rooms games will help my students improve their communication skills and at the same time build on team work and strengthening their relationships.
