QR Codes Move into the School Room
It appears that Millennials are not drawn to QR Codes, but the generation after them might be. If they are, it will be due to some schools’ initiatives involving QR codes in the class room. Teachers at Beatrice Middle School, in Beatrice, NE, have created teaching materials using QR codes that supplement course work.
The students download a free app to their mobile device. The app finds the code, downloads it and sends the device to a link, such as a YouTube video about the [...]
