Ohm VR: solving electronics escape room challenges on the roadmap towards gamified STEAM education

We present a prototype of VR application containing puzzles in-spired by Electronics and Telecommunication classes validated qual-itatively. The design utilizes escape room mechanics and the application features 3 levels: solving resistors circuits, amplifier circuit and the network configuration. It is implemented with Unity for Meta Quest 2 platform. The experience lasts about 30–45 minutes. It was evaluated by usability and user experience tests conducted with $\mathrm{N}=5$ users. Learning outcome and knowledge retention was measured with a pre-test and post-test.
