Aaron W. Beger, S. Hannan, Riya Patel, Eva Sweeney
Abstract
Virtual escape rooms (ERs) offer an innovative way to expose students to educational material in a creative, engaging way, particularly when they incorporate three-dimensional (3-D) models. Activities can be readily built with Google Workspace. Offering this activity to teams in a physical setting may promote collaboration and maximize the educational utility, whereas having learners complete it remotely on an individual basis may be more convenient, allowing them to fit it in their study schedule at their own convenience.
