Victorian Mystery Escape Room
In Engineering for the Free Your Mind: The Ultimate Escape Room project we focused on planning, building, and decorating our escape rooms. If you look at the picture to the right of your screen you will see our finished escape room. Two things we built from scratch was the wooden mantel hanging on the wall and the brown closet in the right hand corner. Overall during the engineering portion of this project we learned how to use tools, used methods such as ideate, and use creative thinking skills to find innovative ways of improvment.

Cardboard PrototypeThe Cardboard Prototype is a small example of the inside of our escape room. This helped us plan out where certain objects were located.

Plan For Each DayEach day in Engineering for our 5 minute power-up we would write a plan for the day. This included must do, can do, and next time sections. Overall this was an organization step to make sure our work was completed.

Electrical CircuitWithin our escape rooms we had to include coding and circuit components. Our components were combined to make a digital keypad. The digital keypad was programed to turn a light from red to green when the right number sequence was entered.

Blueprint for MantelIn the maker space we created a wooden mantel. For the teacher to hang it up on the wall we had to create a blueprint of the location with accurate measurements.
