    description de l'activité / description of the activity: I created 10 math problems that are slightly more difficult than exam problems. I generated one QR code for each problem. I printed one page per QR code and each page included the following elements: a letter, a QR code, and an answer to a problem that is NOT the one associated to the QR code on that page. The pages are placed around the classroom and the students are instructed to pick a starting point. They would then take note of the letter for the page that is their starting point, scan the QR code to reveal the problem and solve it. Once they have the answer to their starting problem, they would search around the classroom for their answer on a different page. Once they find it, they take note of the letter on the new page, and they do it all over again, until they come back to their starting point. The letters they collected can now be rearranged to spell a word.

    l'objectif de l'activité / the goal of the activity: Review the material, practice problem-solving skills, prepare for exams.
