QR Codes

For the past year or so, I've wanted to do something with QR Codes.  While at the SLATE 2012 conference earlier in the week, I was inspired by another educator to finally make the move.  We have a new  IMC/Library website in the 7-12 building and what better way to promote it than with a QR code.

The process was simple...
I took the url for the "Research Tools" page of the IMC/Library website, plopped it into Kaywa, which is one of many QR Code generators, and hit "copy" on the code that was created.  From there I went to Word and pasted the code on a new document.  I added some text, then Sue made copies and put them up around the high school.

We are anxious to see what the reaction is from the students.  Will they scan the code?  What about the staff?

There are free QR Code Scanner apps for all kinds of devices.  Download one and give it a try.  QR Codes are found on all kinds of things.

Here is the poster that was put up today at the high school.

Working on a research project?

Scan this code for some great resources.

QR Code Scanner apps are free.  Download one on your handheld device.
