Wanted Posters using Aurasma « keldarichards. Whilst teaching Descriptions to year 7 last week I hit upon the idea of using Aurasma to jazz up the inevitable Wanted posters they were going to make. I have used Aurasma before to create a talking display at the back of my classroom (see post on Le Mur Parlant) and this seemed like a logical step. It rang of Harry Potter (I am an avid fan) and I could not wait to try it in class.

The difference this time was that now I have a class set of iPads the pupils would be able to complete the whole task themselves – from filming to creating QR codes. Below is a step to step guide to the process, and I have attached a powerpoint that I used in class. It is worth checking that the QR codes and aura images open properly before you print the work as we did have a few technical issues. To be able to share your auras you need to create an account (but you do not even need an email for this). 1. Film your piece of augmented reality using the Camera on the iPad. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7.
