What are these funny boxes and why do I need them? – VCC Day QR code workshop
QR codes have emerged as a convenient and useful means of bridging the physical and digital worlds.
QR codes are box-like black and white graphics capable of conveying information when scanned by a smartphone or tablet’s camera and opened by an “app” called a “reader.” These codes can contain all kinds of data, from contact info for individuals and links to websites, as well as tutorials, map locations and much more.
This cyber-workshop will cover the basics of QR codes, including how to generate and read them. We will also discuss creative ways that communities are using the codes to engage members, as well as clients from outside. This enriching technology can be used effectively to augment presentations and resources, adding value to all the usual tools that ensure student success. QR codes can also help boost operational effectiveness by enabling mobile access to procedures and instructions. Lastly, QR codes can be integrated into marketing campaigns, from posters, to business cards, to everything in between.
The use of mobile devices in education and everyday life is increasing exponentially and QR codes will help you exploit the synergies that are possible when digital access to resources is facilitated.
