A 360 panoramic escape room. A great way to introduce the topic of pathogenic microorganisms. Scenario: The World Health Organisation has released a warning about a new type of disease spreading rapidly over 3 continents. It is very contagious, and the death rate is rising. No one knows at this stage what type of pathogen is causing this illness. The first task is to return to where the illness was first reported and determine what is causing this new disease. The mission begins in a nearby woodland where the first victims had been staying. The escape room is designed to generate student interest in microbes. 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: • Types of microorganisms • Lifecycles of microorganisms • TB, HIV and Candida auris information sheets. There are mini-quizzes and checkpoints along the way to check student understanding. The answers to these questions are found in videos and worksheets. 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. This is a great introduction to A level Unit 4 Microorganisms unit.
