UNLOCK INTERACTIVE 'JOURNEY BOOK'

The UNLOCK interactive “Journeybook” creates an overview of the UNLOCK project’s outputs and allows Higher Education educators and game-based learning researchers to understand the potential of Educational Escape Rooms (EERs) as game-based learning tools in their practice. By completing the Journeybook you will better understand EERs, have the tools to adapt them to your teaching needs and get a step closer to modernising education and assessment practices.

Educational Escape Rooms in Practice:

​Research, experiences and Recommendations
"The following e-book (...) presents a review of the existing body of academic literature on EERs, while capturing current approaches and practices from across the diverse line of disciplines, and challenges experienced in the adoption of EERs in the (higher) education settings. The literature review provides an overview of the status-quo of the EERs in the higher education sector, followed by UNLOCK project partner country reports (Denmark, Germany, Netherlands, Lithuania, Portugal, and Spain) for targeted insights on the adoption of EERs in the local (higher) education contexts. We also present the synthesis report provid[ing] a discussion of the major findings, along with emerging themes and recommendations for further EER research and practice."
