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. Dear Viper, You are being trained for a new mission. Your immediate task is to practice for this mission by deciphering clues and using your background knowledge. Your handler will be with you along the way. Welcome to your Scavenger HuntWXMN
2. In order to qualify for the new mission, we need to know if you have basic knowledge of UK geography. Name the four countries and capitals that comprise the United Kingdom. Then ask your handler for the clue to locate the next QR code.ESWNI
3. Your new mission will contain maneuvers on steep slopes. Find the gradient, given (13, 0) and (-3, 8)-½
4. You will be in charge of large amounts of heavy explosives for your mission. You need to transport 1643 kilos of detonators and chemicals. So as not to raise suspicion, you are only allowed to move 15 pounds of explosives at a time. How many trips will you need to make?110
5. At the Center, we have been impressed by your knowledge of guns. We would like to introduce two different weapons to you: poison pens and exploding rats. (The latter is a bit messy, but we do enjoy watching them explode.) The number of requests per week for poison pens and exploding rats is proportional to the number of people that our Agents must kill. If you are initially instructed to eliminate 14 people (week 1) and you get 7 new requests each following week, how many people will you kill over a period of 8 weeks?63
6. The Center offers you the use of various weaponry, along with a request to keep costs down. Our cost of an umbrella dart gun is $120; a flamethrower glove is $50; is a cyanide pistol is $80, and 4 pipe guns are $160. What combination would cost the least? A)umbrella dart gun, flamethrower glove, 2 cyanide pistols; (B)umbrella dart gun, 2 cyanide pistols, 4 pipe guns; or (C)umbrella glove,4 cyanide pistols,flamethrower gloveC
7. Our cost savings scheme includes gadgets. We have just updated the Dog Doo Transmitter and are promoting it amongst our Agents. Its former price was $197.00, but is on sale for 20% off. How much will the Dog Doo transmitter cost after the discount?-40
8. During your next mission, you must attach a strip of poison-soaked Velcro to each side of 19 octagonal stop signs, so that you can then attach battery-operated bombs embedded in Christmas lights to the edges. How many strips of Velcro must you cut if you need one strip per edge of each octagon?152
9. You will learn on Tuesday how to crack codes. We need to know how prepared you are. Study this pattern. @, #, $, %, !, @, #, $, %, !.... What is the 19th term?%
10. One more question about your preparedness for cracking codes: The pattern you use to stitch a bug into hotel room blanket is up, down, knot, right. This pattern is repeated over and over again. If the first stitch is the "up", what will the 34th stitch be?Knot
11. You need access to classified documents in the home of Patrick, an FBI agent who happens to be your neighbor. You kindly offer Patrick and his wife, Anne, a pan of double fudge brownies laced with a sleeping aid. There were 24 brownies in the pan. Patrick ate 8 of the brownies before he passed out, and Abby ate 4 of the brownies before dropping to the ground, asleep. What fraction of the brownies is left?½
12. You must possess skills to approximate the amount of paralyzing poison needed to inject your enemies in a crisis situation. The amount of poison you must inject to paralyze someone is based on a formula that considers 2/5 of a person's body weight. If your enemy weighs 80 kilos, how many milliliters poison must you inject to paralyze him?32 mL
13. You are given a stack of playing cards embedded with microchips which you can control from your Swatch and cause to explode. You scatter the cards at a London attraction that your enemy is visiting this afternoon. Tell your Handler which attraction you've chosen.any
