Introducing an Online Escape Room to Enhance Students' Database Concepts
Abstract
An online escape room can be used in learning processes to develop problem solving and critical thinking skills of students. Therefore, this study prepared and introduced the educational online escape rooms in the teaching and learning process of the database course. Each escape room consists of three puzzles related to the teaching topic of the course. A survey was administered with the students to collect their feedback about the escape rooms. Moreover, the final grades of the two groups of the database course were analyzed to determine the impact of the escape rooms on students' gain. Results show that students perceived that the escape rooms helped them in learning database concepts. The comparison of grades depicted the students' gain in all the three categories (high, medium, and low achievers) of the group who passed the course after offering the escape rooms as compared to the group who passes the course with the traditional approach. Moreover, the attrition rates (fail and dropout) were also decreased in the group who passed the course after offering the escape rooms.
