North Central Teachers' Convention 2020

This session explores a new way to engage students through maker education, hands-on learning and curriculum-based escape room clue/puzzle design. Session attendees will learn the Mobile Escape process that helps students take learning into their owns hands, and provides them the environment to acknowledge one other's unique gifts and abilities. The process that we will review allows students to engage in teamwork and problem solving to create their very own educational escape room. Participants will explore a unique educational puzzle created by Mobile Escape as well as the benefits of the inquiry-based prototyping process. Attendees will leave the session with a new appreciation for joy, wonder and curiosity, as well as a process framework they can implement in their classroom.
