Capturing and securing student attention can be a struggle for even the most seasoned instructors. As educators strive to create meaningful learning experiences for students, we will share two game-based activities to enhance student engagement. First, ‘Escape rooms’ are game-based learning activities in which students detect clues, solve puzzles, and work collaboratively to “escape” the room. Second, Kahoot, a free online tool, is more engaging and rewarding for students than zoom polls.
