1. When can I access the course?

Anytime! You will get immediate, lifetime access to the course including the workbook and video modules. If you want to start building today, you can! On the other hand, if you need to put the finishing touches on your syllabus first, you can start when that is complete.

2. What’s in the course workbook?

So much awesome stuff! There are seven modules, each with a short assignment to complete and a video lesson.

• The PUZZLE IDEA BOOK has 30+ puzzles that you can mold to your content.

• A QUICK START GUIDE to get lots of students through the activity with minimal time spent on resetting between groups.

• A DEBRIEF OUTLINE gives you the structure to manage this crucial task after completing the escape room.

• The TEST RUN CHECKLIST ensures that you find any sticky points, and that it runs through the first time smoothly.

• Impressive templates you can use right away, including learning objectives, planning out the structure, graphic puzzles, and success certificates.

3. Do you have a refund policy?

Due to the digital nature of this product, there will be no refunds after purchase.

4. What if I’m super busy? The semester is starting soon, and I already feel behind.

I feel you - but you won’t need hours to implement this activity. The framework is designed for easy implementation. So even if you only have a few hours between courses, you can do this!

5. What if all my classes are online? Can I create a virtual escape room?

This course and workbook are desgined to create a physical escape room - in either a classroom or simulation lab. I offer a video workshop on creating virtual escape rooms HERE.

6. what if I have zero active learning experience?

No worries! Building an escape room is an excellent first step in the active learning journey because it is so much fun! You will immediately see the effects and be inspired to continue to create interactive classroom activities.

7. All of this for $39? Are you sure?!?

Yes! My goal was to make this an easy decision because nursing education needs this NOW.
I want inspired and innovative instructors (that’s you!) to have this tool to improve our student’s clinical judgment, think critically and ultimately be stronger RNs.
