A team of faculty, researchers and students from CMAT visited Carlos Amarante Secondary School (ESCA) in March 2023 and offered an escape room experience, which was doubly set up in two rooms. Due to demand, sessions expanded and the team came back to ESCA in June, involving 445 students in total. The final evaluation is highly favorable: one of the primary goals was to overcome the difficulty of having high school students participate in the outreach activities proposed at the University of Minho. 

Some of the materials and posters used in this escape room were funded within the scope of FCT projects UIDP/00013/2020 and UIDB/00013/2020.
