I demonstrated examples of doing an online spelling test using QR Codes, a matching vocabulary game (matching a flashcard with an explanation in a QR Code), a QR Code Maths Treasure Hunt, a QR Code Webquest, a QR Code Quiz, a story using talking QR Codes. I also showed how to put links to resources on QR Codes into QR Codes. The presentation I gave is embedded below from the Seomra Ranga Slideshare account. While it doesn’t really show the practical aspects of the workshop, it may give you a flavour of how QR Codes can be practically in the classroom.

When you scan QR codes using apps such as i-nigma, with your smartphone, ipad and computer (if you have a web camera) it links information to you.

In a project in my Emerging Technologies class I teach, QR codes generated by my students connected the local community and global world to their student-created works

During my 8th grade advertising unit, I wanted to incorporate QR codes. Always trying to avoid a lecture, and also always trying to include hands-on application, I created the following lesson with the end product being a story using QR codes.

On Sunday I read an article in the local newspaper about QR (Quick Response) codes that smartphones and tablets can read using a QR reader app.   I've had a smartphone for almost a year now but never have played around with QR codes, but the article peaked my interest in them.   The article was mainly how businesses use them but I started thinking of ways that schools could use them too.
