Nursing Escape Room Review Session

From the creative mind of Associate Professor Judy Wilson, from which also sprang the 2020 hit video of a head-to-toe nursing assesment of her dog Frank, came an escape room activity for NUR 111 students to review for their final exam. Judy invited them to anticpate the activity by sending a film noir video to their email boxes.

Teams of students were given many challengers, including ciphers, crossword puzzles, the game Operation, and a locked treasure chest.  To solve each challenge and move to the next, they had to recall and apply the nursing concepts learned throughout the semester.  When I dropped by, the teams were thoroughly engaged with their tasks and eager to be the first to finish.  The game Operation was a substantial hurdle for several groups-  it is as difficult as you remember to remove the funny bone without causing the buzzer and light to go off.

As the Spring 2022 semester draws to a close, it's good to see that learning can be fun!
