Summary

This is Blended Intensive Program (BIP), which invites students from various fields to explore the intersection of creativity, technology, storytelling, and gamification by designing their own interactive digital escape rooms. The BIP combines a virtual introductory module with a five‑day physical mobility period in Kaunas, Lithuania. Throughout the program, participants will work in international teams, learn to use Genially and AI‑powered tools, develop narratives and puzzles, and ultimately present a fully functioning digital escape room as their final project. Competencies acquired: • Design interactive digital escape rooms using Genially; • Apply gamification principles to learning environments; • Build coherent narratives, puzzles, and game logic; • Collaborate effectively in international teams; • Integrate AI tools into creative design workflows; • Present and justify their digital creations to an audience.
