Participants will learn basic skills using Google Slides, Docs, and Forms to create an interactive virtual escape room experience. Virtual escape rooms can be used to reinforce and assess learning. Learners will follow screen capture videos to duplicate Google slides, docs, and forms based upon their area of expertise to design and implement a plan for creating a digital escape room. In the training, learners will collaborate and reflect on the functionality and effectiveness of the digital escape rooms through discussion boards. The training will provide the background structure for a virtual escape room with functioning links, leaving flexibility to create puzzles for any subject matter. The course will guide the participants in the step-by-step process of creating a flexible structure for a virtual escape room to optimize digital instruction. In order for participants to fully grasp the concepts and create a digital structure and links, the time requirement will be four hours.
