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.

Questions / Answers (teacher reference)

Question

Answer

1. The researcher manipulates the IV, but does so in the participants' natural environmentA field experiment
2. The IV is changed by natural occurrences, the researcher observes the effect on the DV2A natural experiment2
3. It predicts what changes will take place in the DV when the IV is manipulated3An experimental hypothesis3
4. It predicts that there will be a change in the DV when the IV is manipulated4A two-tailed hypothesis4
5. It predicts in which direction the change will take place5A one-tailed hypothesis5
6. There will be no change due to the manipulation of the IV6A null hypothesis6
7. It has greater ecological validity than a laboratory experiment7A field experiment7
8. This type of experiment has less control therefore there is more possibility of the influence of confounding variables and more difficult to replicate8Field experiment8
9. This type of experiment is extremely difficult to replicate9A natural experiment9
10. Consent,deception and informed consent are all expamples of10Ethical issues10
