The new escape rooms are becoming more and more entertainment-oriented.
What is edutainment in the Osnabrück Escape Room?
Edutainment is made up of two essential things. Education and entertainment , in short playful learning. In times of social media and digital distancing, it is becoming increasingly difficult to motivate people to learn independently. However, if you combine fun and entertainment with education, you get a socially and culturally sustainable product in the field of leisure activities.
The edutainment sector is growing rapidly in various directions and can be found in everyday situations where knowledge needs to be passed on quickly and easily. In television shows such as Galileo, knowledge is imparted in an entertaining way. Many museums also make use of this method and combine interesting with funny.
But edutainment is also used in further education and training. Edutainment is particularly suitable for breaking up presentations or lectures. For modern online courses, for example, entertaining elements such as quizzes or videos are ideal. The latter are particularly suitable for conveying content in an entertaining way
