Teacher Notes

A. Prior to the lesson:

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

3. Print out the QR codes.

4. Cut them out and place them around your class / school.

B. The lesson:

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!

C. TIPS / OTHER IDEAS

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. Go to Pages and press the Document button in the left hand corner. To create a new document you will press the + sign in the left hand corner. Now you will see a document that is titled "Blank" hold your finger on the word "Blank" and it will allow you to re-name it. Please rename the new Document as "Text". Now do this again and name the document "Picture" Code Word: Create Step 1
2. Now go to CNN.com and press on an article of interest (try not to get too side tracked with the article). Hold your finger down on any word and once it is highlighted widen the area that is highlighted. Now press "copy" and go back to your "Article" Document. Paste the Article into your document by holding your finger down in your document. It will give you the option to Paste it. Press that. Code Word: Text Step 2
3. Now go back to the article and hold your finger down on the picture that goes with it. It will allow you to SAVE IMAGE. Now go back to your "Picture" document and open it. Press the + symbol in the right hand corner then press the Media tab and find your newly saved image in your Camera Roll (this might take a few seconds to register the new pic). Add the picture to the document. (If there is no picture that is attached to the article...find any picture and use it). Code Word: Picture Step 3
4. Now press on the Document button in the left hand corner of Pages. This is where you will see all of the documents that you have created. You are going to create a folder so that your documents are better organized. To do this you will press and hold your "Article" Document and all of your documents will start to wiggle. Now press and hold the "Article" document and slide it over to your "Picture" document. This will allow you to create and name a Folder. Please name your Folder "Pages Activity". Code Word: Folder Step 4
5. Now go to your "Article" document and add a picture to this document (it can be the same one you used before or a new one). You will do this by pressing on the + symbol in the right hand corner--> media tab --> Select a picture. It will automatically put the picture in your word doc. Now resize the picture by putting your fingers on the picture at a diagonal (this might take two fingers from different hands depending on how big the picture) and pull the corners in to each-other. When you get it to the size that you want it...drag the picture to the middle of your text and watch the text wrap around the picture. Code word:Insert Step 5
6. Now you will email your document to yourself. In Pages you will go to your Article document. In the right hand corner there is an icon that looks like a wrench --> "Share and Print" --> Email document --> Choose Format (Word, PDF, or Pages format.)--> enter your email and SEND!! Code Word: Email Step 6
7. You will now save your document in your Dropbox. To do this you will go back to your document and press on the wrench icon --> "Share and Print" --> Open In Another App--> Choose Format--> Choose App---> Dropbox Code Word: Dropbox 7
