Innovation in the EFL and CYL Classroom: Design of an Escape Room for Primary Education Teaching Students

This paper presents part of the results of a teaching innovation project developed with the students of the 2nd year of the Degree in Primary Education at the Faculty of Social and Human Sciences in Teruel (University of Zaragoza). The teaching innovation project in which this intervention proposal is framed is focused on the framework of the teaching and learning of foreign languages in the Primary Education classroom. In this project, students are trained on the relevance of cooperation between areas to promote student learning. After carrying out several research activities in the subjects of English in Primary Education II (EFL) and Children's Literature (LIJ in Spanish), the project culminates in an Escape Room activity organised by the teaching staff in which students have the opportunity to experience first-hand the benefits of transversality and interdisciplinary work in the classroom.
