SDD21: Digital Escape Rooms as a form of Alternative Assessment
Hours: 2.25
Digital escape rooms are a way of having students work independently or in groups to solve queries and find clues to "escape" the room. This is a fun and challenging way to present and check for understanding of constructs. We discuss the application; experience a simple one; then show how to build your own along with resources and other examples.
Participants will:
- Participate in a mini escape room and see several examples of the types of presentation and questions that can be asked. We will also brainstorm ideas on application of this learning tool.
