Escape Rooms and E-Learning Unite for Smart Cities Education Entertainment

Smart cities adopt innovative educational methods to give citizens the required skills and knowledge. This paper explores integrating e-learning and Artificial Intelligence Technology related to escape rooms as an educational methodology developed to improve education in smart cities. Integrating the interactive and educational problem-solving elements of escape rooms with the flexibility of e-learning that adopts a mixed-method approach aims to enhance participation, critical thinking, and collaborative learning. This study demonstrates the main factors affecting these combined technologies integrations and the existing studies used for this purpose. The study examines the effectiveness of this hybrid educational model through a comprehensive review of the literature, followed by a discussion of its potential applications and benefits in the context of smart cities. The results indicate that this combined approach can significantly enhance cutting-edge learning outcomes to better prepare individuals for the complexities of living and working in smart cities.
