Abstract
Educators are constantly bombarded with a new tool or concept that
it is essential to study the pros and cons of each tool before utilizing
it in the classroom. Escape rooms are a new concept that is starting to
emerge in a society as a recreational team sport. Bigger cities are
beginning to provide people with rooms that are designed with multilevel
concepts and experiences that allow them to breakout of the room.
Breakout Edu is designed from these sessions offering students
multilevel questions, gamifications, and using technology tools to
enhance the education experience. The purpose of this paper is to review
research studies to learn if using Breakout EDU in a classroom setting
will improve student engagement through communication, collaboration,
critical thinking, creative innovation, and confidence. The results of
this study show that Breakout Edu do not just offer exposure to
technology but a higher level of thinking and collaboration among
peers.
