AS Biology - Biological Molecules Digital Escape Room (suitable for all exam boards)

(0)
A digital escape room to check student understanding of biological molecules studied at AS level. 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.

The questions throughout the game are based on a knowledge of the kinetic theory, with multiple choice questions and general knowledge. Students should have some knowledge of the points listed below (or access to their notes/textbook for research purposes. Specification points covered: Properties of solids, liquids and gases and particle models The effect of temperature and pressure on the volume of gases. Describe the changes of state in terms of melting, boiling, freezing, evaporation, condensation, and sublimation. Define the terms solute, solution, and solvent. Describe and explain the term diffusion and what factors speed up diffusion in gases. Icons on each page allow students to move through the story, or provide a clue. If students are stuck, they should try touching objects on the page as these can also hold clues. I have provided the answers to the password questions.
