逃離牛頭怪（第一季）：一個關於希臘神話的密室逃脫

In this digital escape room, students will work to solve puzzles as a group in order to escape the Minotaur's maze.  We will spend the first 5 - 10 minutes introducing ourselves and explaining the rules of the game.

Once in the maze, students will be given 60 minutes to work together to solve puzzles collaboratively.  A token system will be used to make sure that every student has an opportunity to contribute to solving the puzzles.  A knowledge of Greek mythology is helpful (although not necessary) to solving the puzzles.  The puzzles will consist of riddles, lateral thinking (outside-the-box thinking) and critical thinking (drawing logical connections).  The group has a total of three hints that they can ask for during the lesson.  For the most part, I am there to set the scene, coach/encourage them, and clarify anything they don't understand about the setup.  That said, not every group will necessarily escape.  Any group that DOES escape will have their team name go on the high score board, which I will post on the course listing and in future offerings of the lesson.

If the group finishes early, I have discussion questions about our favorite Greek myths.

Below, I'll post the high scores of groups that have gone through the Labyrinth:
