This is an amazingly comprehensive tutorial!! A fellow teacher told me about building a digital escape room in Google Forms, but I had no idea where to start. Today I created two and I’m so excited to try with my students. Thank you so much 😊
Great video! I would like to give this a try for an employee team building activity however if they don't get the answer right, they can't go back and if they do they unlock the next clue as we want one winner at the end. How do I go about this?
very cool. I use google slides on my website for escape room and use the form only for the code entry. I am going to have to try this way and see which is better - great share - thanks!
I'm hoping to make my first escape room in a few weeks and this was a very helpful video. Is there a way in Google Forms to have branching, so students might go down different paths?
Thank you. I just needed help on how to upload images like a table on your first question. A friend told me to make a table in word then screen shot it. Is that the right way to do it?
I'm self-taught at creating google form escape rooms, and I make them for my family and friends, but I struggle with making good puzzles that (a) take time to solve and (b) also work for multiple age groups. Do you have any tips on that?
So I need the video that would come before this. Is there one? How do I make it so that each room is on just one page and they cant advance until they get the correct answer? The other tutorials show everything on one form and I don't want that. HELP!
If you watch this video it shows how to do that. You need just one form, but divided into sections. Each section will only be visible once all questions in the previous sections have been completed correctly.
This is awesome. But, I'm having touble with uploading pictures. I find one I like online, then save it to my desktop. My Google form says 'selected file not supported'. I dpnt know where to save the pictures I want to use in order to upload it to forms. Suggestinos?
You need to make sure the image you’re saving is either a “.png” file type, or a “.jpg” file type. You can find this out by right clicking the image you want to use online, and pressing “save image as”, then make sure the file type is one of the ones I mentioned earlier. If it’s not, you’ll need to find another image. I hope this helps!
Thank you so much!! This was one of the most helpful videos I have seen about how to build an escape room! You made this easy, and I am now inspired to give it a try!
I will start by making this activity, however, I´d love to have a page where this activity can become more visual so I can apply it to my students, do you know any??
@@TheTechTrain I used Powerpoint to create a jigsaw out of a picture related to our vocabulary. I put a jigsaw piece jpg on each "Congratulations" screen for them to download. At the end, they uploaded all of them to a Google Slide and put the puzzle together for the final solution. They loved it!
That sounds likeba really great idea! I'm glad your students enjoyed it, and it's fun coming up with new, engaging resources isn't it? If you ever have a resource idea but aren't sure how to make it, let me know - I always enjoy the challenge of bringing a new idea to life in something like PowerPoint, and then share it on here.
