摘要

Currently, students seem to be losing their desire for knowledge and learning, particularly in science. This trend of declining interest has intensified, especially since the COVID-19 pandemic, resulting in a drop in performance. In response, teachers are looking for creative and innovative ways to regain students’ attention and interest. One proposed approach is the integration of play into the learning process. Therefore, the purpose of this study is to create a postcard puzzle, an alternative to the well-known escape rooms, with the help of Generative AI and integrate it into a science course. By doing so, the teacher aims to spark students’ interest and capture their attention, ultimately improving their performance. The goal is to develop an interactive teaching method where students are actively involved through participation in educational games. This process encourages engagement and collaboration among students, thus providing a more enjoyable and hands-on learning experience.
