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. 1Who was the best teacher you ever had K-college, and why were they the best? (name isn’t important) Name one strategy that teacher used for classroom management. Each person needs to respond, and a scribe must report out for your group.varies

3. 3What factors contribute to student disengagement?Contributing Factors to Disengagement Research
4. 4Unmotivated Kids: For the following scenario, pick up to THREE ideas for managing this student’s behavior: Ricky sits quietly in your class but does not participate much. He seems ‘tuned out’--but then really comes alive when the bell rings and he can go join his friends at lunch. You rarely get homework from Ricky; in fact, he is in danger of failing the course because of incomplete assignments. But Ricky is generally organized, can be meticulous in his work when he chooses to, and always brings all work materials to class. When you look through Ricky’s cumulative folder, you find numerous notations on past report cards saying that he ‘needs to apply himself’ and ‘put more effort into his work.varies
5. 5Read the following scenario and decide the best strategies to use and why. Be ready to report out with a different reporter. For the following scenario, pick up to THREE ideas for managing this student’s behavior: Lucinda often enters your Social Studies class late, looking upset and angry. As you teach your lesson, Lucinda will frequently mutter under her breath and scowl. You are concerned about how to approach Lucinda about her classroom behaviors, because she has a reputation in the school as a tough fighter. But you have also interacted enough with Lucinda to know that she can do the class work if she puts some effort into it.varies
