These black and white squares have appeared everywhere from billboards at the side of the road, roof tops, cola cans, buses, magazines, etc. So why not in your library, textbook, assignment, project, or classroom display? The ability to use them to direct students or colleagues to online resources (presentation slides, websites, video, book location, etc.) is powerful and engaging and, when well implemented, can offer a level of interaction and engagement. Itâ€™s not about what they are but about how we use them and what they can offer me in an educational setting. Whether youâ€™re a teacher, student, parent, school governor, or on the PTA, you ought to know about QR Codes â€“ what they are, how they work, and how you can leverage them to increase student participation in and around the classroom. They offer the ability to share digital content from teacher to student, from student to student, and even from student to teacher. Go on, try it! This eBook will explain everything and put QR Codes in context. Using computers and technology in educational environments can be exciting and challenging. Implementing QR Codes within your studentâ€™s learning is just that: exciting to see how students of all ages use and interact with them, and a challenge to make them usable, informative, applicable, and appropriate. This book draws on established examples from the commercial and corporate world as well as from established users of QR Codes at all levels of education; from primary schools up to Universities. Not only will you find examples of how QR Codes have been used but you will find out how you can design, create, and implement your own QR Code treasure hunt, library resource, student group work, orientation activity, conference or event feedback, etc. David Hopkins has developed a respected reputation among educational technology networks for his use and research into the uses of QR Codes. He has been active with QR Codes at Bournemouth University and more recently at the University of Leicester since 2008. This book draws on Davidâ€™s QR Code experience with poster projects, classroom activities, and workshops and delivers these through a practical and up to date guide.â€ What are people saying about QR Codes in Education? â€œAll you ever wanted to know about using QR codes in Education is in this eBook.
