What do you get when you add collaboration, problem-solving, and good old-fashioned direction reading? An exciting library orientation! Sure, you can develop a scavenger hunt, a video, a game, but our LHS librarians take it one step further: An Escape Room. To "escape" their orientation, students must work through all of the clues. One must wonder...if they can't work it out, will they remain in the library forever?
 |
| Students begin by finding their group based on their provided cards. |
 |
| Students use the clue on the card to find their next clue. |
 |
| They continue their journey to another book, with a secret code unlocking location #3. |
 |
| Through the first few clues, students find the fiction, non-fiction, and periodical sections of the library. |
 |
| Students get a little stumped at the circulation desk -- where is the clue? |
 |
| They finally figure it out, and unlock the secret code. |
At the conclusion of the lesson, students have successfully navigated the library, including the online resources and can identify how to use those resources for future assignments.
