Understanding QR Codes: Revolutionizing Access to Information

QR Codes, or Quick Response Codes, are two-dimensional barcodes that link to websites or information. Scanning a QR Code with a smartphone or tablet directs users to pages offering more detail, such as zoo exhibits, catalogs, or university resources. They are now widely used in marketing, from business cards to public service announcements. Educators can leverage QR Codes in the classroom, allowing students to share book reviews and projects online. This versatile tool enhances engagement both in learning environments and in community outreach efforts.
