1. Arrange students into groups. Each group needs at least ONE person who has a mobile device.
2. If their phone camera doesn't automatically detect and decode QR codes, ask students to
4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.
1. Give each group a clipboard and a piece of paper so they can write down the decoded questions and their answers to them.
2. Explain to the students that the codes are hidden around the school. Each team will get ONE point for each question they correctly decode and copy down onto their sheet, and a further TWO points if they can then provide the correct answer and write this down underneath the question.
3. Away they go! The winner is the first team to return with the most correct answers in the time available. This could be within a lesson, or during a lunchbreak, or even over several days!
4. A detailed case study in how to set up a successful QR Scavenger Hunt using this tool can be found here.
Question | Answer |
| 1. What is the function of the two main layers of the skin and accessory organs? | Protection, aids in homeostasis, receives stimuli, homeostasis, synthesis of Vitamin D | 2. Two main layers of the skin | dermis, epidermis | 3. A burn marked by pain, blistering, and superficial destruction of dermis with edema and hyperemia of the tissues beneath the burn | second-degree burn | 4. How does burn damage in the skin affect other functions in the body? | cause dehydration, infection, chemical imbalance, stop blood flow, damage kidneys and muscle etc. | 5. This professional works at a burn unit in a hospital and is responsible for fluid and electrolyte management along with their primary expertise in alleviating pain and altering consciousness during surgery. | anesthesiologist | 6. How do the skin and nervous system interact to allow you to feel pain? | skin responds to stimuli, sends impulses through sensory nerves to sensory cortex in parietal lobe allowing to feel pain. | 7. What are the four main types of bone? | flat, long, short, irregular, seismoid | 8. What aspects of bone make is stronger than concrete? | strength and flexibility | 9. True or False, Spongy bone includes osteons. | False - trabeculae | 10. What is the difference between yellow and red bone marrow? | red-produces all types of blood cells. Yellow - stores energy, can become red if needed. | 11. What is the difference between an open fracture (Also called compound fracture.) and a closed fracture (also called a simple fracture)? | open leaves the skin and is visible, closed doesn't. | 12. Define bone remodeling. | Continuous turnover of bone matrix and minerals, first increase in resorption and osteoclasts and later, reactive bone formation by osteoblasts. | 13. What are the four main stages of healing after a fracture? | There are four stages in the repair of a broken bone: 1) the formation of hematoma at the break, 2) the formation of a fibrocartilaginous callus, 3) the formation of a bony callus, and 4) remodeling and addition of compact bone. | 14. What two systems help protect the body agains invaders? | lymphatic and immune | 15. What is an antibody? | An antigen-binding immunoglobin, produced by B cells, functions as the effetor in an immune system. | 16. Name the various types of blood(blood groups) that a person can have based on the presence of antigens in the blood. | A,B, AB, O | 17. What can't a person with type A blood receive blood from a person with AB blood? | the person with A blood produces antibodies that will bind to the AB blood causing agglutination. | 18. What are t cells? | Lymphocyte responsible for cell-mediated immunity that differentiates under the influence of the thymus. | 19. Explain how a vaccination works. | Your body is exposed to an antigen through vaccination. Body recognizes it and memory B and T cells are created that stay in our blood in case we are exposed later. | 20. Name two autoimmune diseases where the body attacks its own tissues. | Rheumatoid arthritis and M.S. |
