# Escape the room

I love 'escape the room' activities, and so do many students! It is a simple way to gamify recall or practice questions. When done remotely, you need to think of how to replicate the process online. One way is to use a simple Google Form approach, using the 'Go to section based on answer' function to reward correct answers and penalise incorrect ones! Here's a quick example I created:

{% embed url="<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1FAIpQLSdNKJ_WrkXTC1qlyeYEp63RkF_PXN9QxhFxAdgRh_YjG4kyPA/viewform?usp=sf_link>" %}

If you want to see how this form was built, or indeed make a copy to use for yourself, then feel free to follow the link below.

{% embed url="<https://docs.google.com/forms/d/16uFzThmQmIuDQRnyIzJVuCTVaPHXBU6QluHbfA24sEc/copy>" %}

There are more complex ways to do this. My favourite at the moment is this approach:
