Students Participate in QR Scavenger Hunt
Students were given an iPad per group to scan QR codes as they progressed through a scavenger hunt of math problems. Students were given the problem on a worksheet and needed to show their work. They had the option to check their solution only using a QR code located on the wall. If they got it correct, they were able to use the next problem listed that pertained to that scavenger hunt card. If they wanted to check their work, they were able to use the app on the iPad that breaks down their own typed in problem step by step. The solution from the app was written in a different format. This means the student had to connect how we write the solution two different ways. The iPad app was chosen because two days later, we had to solve the polynomial using factoring properties. Therefore, students were in control of their learning through the entire process...that spanned over a four-day period.
