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!

Question

Answer

2. Nearly all the hosts of International Sporting events like the Olympics and World cup are HICs.Factor2Factor3
3. Factor4A host city needs to convince residents that the expenses of covering the Olympics (which may be covered by raising taxes) are worth it in city improvement and new jobs.

5. Factor6Countries have boycotted the Olympics in the past due to conflicts with other nations or political stances.
6. Factor7Russia was disqualified from all international sporting events because of doping and more recently, the invasion of Ukraine.
7. Factor8Environmental factors that can affect events include typhoons, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes and air pollution. Countries force factories to stop work in the lead up to events e.g. China in 2022.
8. Factor9Qatar will be hosting the world cup during winter due to high temperatures.
9. Factor10The stadiums in Qatar for the world cup will be dismantled and sent to other parts of the world for reuse. Some stadiums from Brazil’s World Cup are now in ruin.
10. Factor11Over 6500 migrant workers have died during the development of stadiums and infrastructure for the Qatar World Cup. This is due to heat and unsafe conditions.
11. Factor122022 World Cup - alcohol will be subsidized & drinking laws will be relaxed as a cultural concession
12. Factor13Winter sports are more niche – tend to be expensive due to equipment. Fewer locations can hold this kind of event. Skiing and similar tend to be seen as being for wealthy, white people.

Encourages national/civic pride. A way to help to reduce inequality. Potential for a positive multiplier effect – money gained from tourism, benefits of the infrastructure and facilities, jobs. A global stage.
