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.

1. I was reading to my daughter.. "It has been said that astronomy is a humbling and character-building experience. There is perhaps no better demonstration of the folly of human conceits than this distant image of our tiny world.. "She stopped me. Not because she had some profound thought. She was distracted by the puzzle (https://jigex.com/RBVd) she had solved the other day. "Dad, is that the image?" she asked. "Well, that's the something else. So, the image we read about was taken on a little satellite, and a few years ago, we launched another probe that took the image of this old satellite. Somewhere in the middle is our little satellite. And oh. the new probe we launched also had an onboard instrument, a telescope.. it captured some amazing images.. but I can't seem to remember the name of the telescope.. " snoring... She had slept off. Anyways. I'm still wondering, what's the name of that instrument. | ralph | 2. I was reading to my daughter | ralph | 3. I was reading to my daughter | ralph | 4.
