Description
This contribution presents an innovative, game-based approach to developing students' cognitive skills in physics education through the use of online escape rooms. These interactive digital environments offer context-rich problem-solving scenarios, requiring collaboration, logical reasoning, and the application of physics concepts. By integrating different puzzles and challenges within a narrative framework, online escape rooms create an engaging learning environment that fosters both individual and group work.
The workshop introduces the pedagogical foundations and technical tools necessary to design such activities, including examples adapted for secondary school physics topics. Participants will explore how escape rooms can enhance motivation, deepen conceptual understanding, and promote active learning. Practical guidelines for creating custom rooms will be shared, along with opportunities to test and reflect on their implementation.
The workshop aims to equip educators with adaptable digital strategies that combine curriculum content with playful, inquiry-based learning.
