Escape room around the world
by Heidi Giese
Starting on this year’s World Environment Day,
June 5 2019, thousands of students from around
the globe took part in a digital Escape room
organized by members of the eTwinning project
“Making Friends around the World”.
It was about sustainable development goals and
Greta Thunberg and went on for three days.
In case students’ sensitive data are included, I
would use an Attribution-Non Commercial-NoDerivs
(CC-BY-NC-ND) licence, which allows other users to
download my work/presentation etc. and share it
with others acknowledging and crediting my work.
Users will not be able to change my work in any
way or use it for commercial purposes.
I would use Social Media to promote this event.
First of all, I will respect the golden rule: “Think
before posting online”.
To protect data privacy, I would make sure that:
- the members of the educational communities
targeted know and follow the netiquette;
- the content I am about to share online does not
affect my, or someone else’s, privacy;
- I will have parental consent for the processing of
personal data of children, because children have
specific protection;
- on the forum or chatroom, I will follow up the
discussions to prevent cyberbullying.
An eTwinning project activity for lifelong
learners
This year I will not write about our own etwinning
projects but about a project called “Making Friends
around the World” created by teachers from Spain
(Camilo Rodríguez Macias and Angel Pavon) and
Cyprus (Nikki Shekkeris). At the end of their
eTwinning activities there was a breakout activity
planned for participants from countries around the
globe. Therefore, with this eTwinning project, many
students and teachers had the unique opportunity
to experience how a digital Escape room and
Breakout Edu work.
I have taken into consideration all the necessary
measures to protect my students’ personal and
sensitive data.
