Future Learning

Science Escape Room offers a non-traditional engaging learning experience in different fields of science. Science Escape Room is a virtual room in which science is an amazing experience to explore. Students are encouraged to take an active role in order to develop their science knowledge and computer skills. They learn to combine logical and creative thinking through puzzles and fun games, acquiring transferable problem-solving and decision-making skills. Three different paths have been conceived, one for each class for “first-degree” secondary schools. They correspond to different scientific disciplines: Biology, Chemistry and Astronomy. These paths can be explored individually or collectively in small groups.
