360 PANORAMIC ESCAPE ROOM - GREENHOUSE EFFECT AND GLOBAL WARMING

(0)
An exciting 360 panoramic escape room. The mission is set on Mars in the future. Earth is no longer inhabitable, and students want to know why. The escape room is designed to generate student interest in an important topic. There are a range of resources to support learning including videos, puzzles, worksheets and mazes. The missions should be played in numerical order as the information in the activities provide the answers to the clues. The escape room itself contains a lot of information regarding: • What is the greenhouse effect? • What is the enhanced greenhouse effect? • What is global warming? • What are the long-term effects? • What can be done? The answers to these questions are found in videos, worksheets and other websites, such as NASA. There are mini-quizzes and checkpoints along the way. At the end of each set of activities there is a key with a locked question. This is the only question students need to get correct in the activities as these lead to the next clue. A teacher answer sheet is included. I have used this resource to introduce this topic to my year 13 biology class but it would be suitable for younger year groups as the answers are on the site.

A Level Biology Ecosystems/Ecology Digital Escape Room

(0)
A digital escape room to check student understanding of Ecosystems and Ecology. Suitable for all exam boards. Once you purchase the escape room, you will download a PDF file with all of the instructions for the students including the website. The escape room involves students clicking on objects which open up online activities such as multiple choice quizzes, cloze activities, and crosswords. In my opinion, my students work better with a partner as they can discuss their answers. Students are required to write some clues onto the worksheet as they will need to input these to move on to the next task. The escape room took my students around 45 minutes to complete. Students do not need to input any personal data.
