Earlier in the semester you completed an Internet scavenger hunt, and you recently worked with your team to create one in a wiki.
There are a lot of elementary majors in this class--and quite a few early childhood folks, so here's a differentt kind of scavenger hunt involving technology: A Kindergarten Digital Camera Scavenger Hunt. There are possibilities here for almost any grade and any subject. What a creative technology-using and technology-teaching teacher!
And checkout the jigsaw puzzle maker he mentions, too. That could definitely be used with any level depending upon the photo and how many pieces you decided to create. Here's one for you! In what grade level and subject area do you think it might be used? How could YOU use it?
By the way, a new twist on the scavenger hunt uses QR codes. Read about one in an elementary school
and a middle school. That same middle school also created a QR code scavenger hunt for parents! I wonder who did better, kids or parents?

I think this is really cool technology. I fear that if important information was included though some parents would be left out of the loop like those who lacked the technology. However, I think this is where we are headed! My hometown uses QR codes to allow residents to pay their water bills! AMAZING!
I think this is a sign I need to download a QR reader!
Thanks for sharing!
That's crazy about the QR codes for kids! I barely just started using them with my smart phone and it took me a bit to see that they really are pretty cool. You can put tons of information in a little tiny square! But does this mean we have to start giving our kids smart phones in elementary school? I hope not! ;)
