Escaping the Inactive Classroom; setting up and running an Escape Room for teaching in Microsoft OneNote

 

Ever wonder why people struggle to turn off their console? Or why they need to complete their turn before they stop playing? What would happen if we applied those principles to education? This talk will consider the holding power of games, what we can learn from games and how these things might be applied to education. This will be done through an Escape Room developed in Microsoft OneNote. 

 

This workshop will be split into two halves, the first half will give you an experience of learning using a OneNote Escape Room and the second will give you the change to get hands on and build your own OneNote Escape Room. We will take some time to reflect on how such artefacts can be useful in education and the types of activities that can be created in this way.
