Digital Breakout on Coding
A few weeks ago, I mentioned Digital Breakouts in my newsletter. If you're a fan of Breakout EDU, Digital Breakouts are a must see! They allow individuals and small groups of students to search for clues on a webpage. Clues may be hidden in the text on the page or in embedded videos, images, and links. Some clues may lead to puzzles that students need to solve to determine the combinations to the digital locks. Like Breakout EDU, students have 45 minutes to solve the puzzles and open the digital locks.
Check out this awesome digital breakout (Going Buggy) that incorporates coding!
