Time to escape—the Moodle mystery

Have you ever felt trapped in Moodle? Did you ever feel that you didn’t know enough about this LMS to escape a certain situation?

Moodle training is available in a variety of formats, including face-to-face instruction, self-paced courses and tutorials. This approach is quite different: Moodle users find themselves in a game similar to an escape room and have to solve some riddles using (and regarding) Moodle functionality. This engaging way of learning is ideal for Moodle trainers, administrators and developers who may never have considered certain Moodle features. They receive some login data to a Moodle instance where they find a prepared environment (e.g. courses, other users, etc.), some parts of this environment may be broken or used in ways they were not intended to be. Amidst all this chaos, participants can find secret codes in activities, blocks and backup files that will help them escape their virtual prison.

A Moodle escape room enables you to learn about Moodle features in a completely different way. You’ll have the most fun working in a team and profiting from your shared Moodle knowledge.

You can try out a special Moodle escape room—the first successful team will win a prize!

Attendees will leave with the knowledge of how to create a Moodle escape room.
