Scavenger hunts (the well-thought-out ones) are not only fun but also highly engaging and challenging, promotes collaboration and problem-solving skills while creating meaningful learning among learners.
Scavenger hunt activities can be done at any stages of the lesson; for an entry point to introduce or hook learners to a new topic, as the main activity or for an exit point or a review activity at the end of a unit.
Though most of the ideas are catered for online learning, they are easily adaptable for face-to-face setting as well. This presentation contains four sections; synchronous, asynchronous, how to reach all learners and building classroom culture and community.
It is important to not get overwhelmed with all the tech tools available out there instead, ask yourself how will this tool help your learners successfully achieve their learning goals. I suggest trying one tech tool at a time, eventually building up your level of comfort in integrating technology in your lessons.
