QR Codes: Uses in Higher Education

by jmkb on Mon, 2012-01-30 15:56
Abstract: 
Quick Response (QR for short) Codes were originally created and used in the automotive industry in Japan. QR codes are now seen on many products you purchase and in newspapers. According to the Pew Internet & American Life Project May 2011 survey found one third of American adults own a smart phone and the growth of tablet ownership is on the rise. With more mobile devices in hand it makes sense to leverage the ability of QR codes in Higher Ed. Join us for an informative as well as creative session on making QR codes work on your campus. From digital storytelling to scavenger hunts, you will be able to create or take something back to campus.
