Flipping the classroom using instructional videos and creating escape room style breakout activities are instructional strategies that can enliven classroom learning experiences. Combined they can enhance the one-shot information literacy session by increasing instructional time and engaging learners in a hands-on activity that promotes critical thinking skills, knowledge application, collaboration, and research resiliency. This article follows the continuing evolution of an experiment with using breakout style lessons in face to face and flipped classes.
