  1. Using QR Codes in the classroom CHERYL LYN FURLOW

  2. Integrating new technology into classroom “As more students gain access to technology like smartphones, iPads, and laptops at younger and younger ages, these items become an integral part of daily life. Now, many savvy teachers are integrating the technology with learning in new and innovative ways, in particular with the use of QR codes” http://barcode.com/20120726955/qr-codes-in-the-classroom.html

  3. QR codes are a 3 dimensional bar code that can be scanned by students using smartphones or ipads. Teachers can get creative and make different worksheets to have students work together or individually to solve.

  4. Ways to Utilize QR Codes in the Classroom This may take some time and effort but it can be used in the classroom each year so it becomes worth the time. You can use this to have students work with small groups or they can do it individually. You can also utilize this with students and parents at home to review information or do homework. http://www.freetech4teachers.com/2011/04/qr-codes-in-classroom.html

  9. “Teachers are using the codes to kick off electronic scavenger hunts, create audio or video book reviews in school libraries, and promote upcoming school events. For our first day of technology class, 2nd, 3rd, and 4th graders used my smartphone to scan the codes in order to pull up various class guidelines. I've never seen kids so excited and ready to discuss rules!” http://www.scholastic.com/teachers/top-teaching/2012/09/qr-codes-classroom

  10. How QR Codes can help teachers • Get Students attention by putting up a large QR code in the class and have it be extra credit for anyone that can scan it and answer the question. • “Ask questions and get answers. Link a QR Code to Quora (at www.quora.com), the online question-and-answer site, where students can see answers to frequently asked questions and can also submit questions. You or other members of the class will be notified of posted questions and can answer them.” • Have QR codes as a tool to additional resources for students on the textbook and handouts. • Making a treasure hunt with questions and answers throughout the classroom to engage the students and help them learn in a different way. • Use it to send home information on grades for parents as well as a calendar of things due, events for the classroom etc. • Being able to have it linked directly to a login page for the website the student will need to access. http://www.dummies.com/how-to/content/how-education-professionals-can-make-use-of-qr-cod.html

  11. Now try this activity: it is a “scavenger hunt” I would place the QR readers throughout the classroom, I would group students together in pairs or groups of 3 to walk around and answer the questions on the QR reader.

  12. Thank you for listening to my presentation, I hope you enjoyed it and learned something.
