Hmm.. QR Codes “Don’t get left behind …” I have trained my colleagues for the last three weeks about using technology. The last workshop was on QR codes and how to use them in ELT and we came up with quite good ideas so I thought it’s high time to write a post about it. We all know the barcodes at the back of chips, chocolate bars and nearly at the back of every product that we buy. They are the codes that include basic information about the product; and now we have QR codes.(See the picture above) They are Quick Response Codes or Mobile Codes that include more information than a barcode and can be read by smartphones using a QR code reader. You take a picture of the QR code and scan the code using a QR Code Reader. QR Codes look so cool and we can benefit from them in and out of the classroom. We all give homework to our kids. QR codes are another way of integrating technology into your classes, some may consider this as too much work, some useless and some as a brilliant idea. QR Codes and Education

I've written about QR Codes before, but I'm on the heels of a new project that has my students using them in new ways. And I just couldn't wait to share! First a little background. Over the summer, I decided that this would be the year that I finally took the plunge and genrefied my non-fiction. That is to say, I'm gonna ditch dewey.*** There are many reasons for this, and soon enough I'll write at length about this decision. For now, however, I'm in the midst of a deep and thorough weeding, in the hopes that cutting the fat NOW will help make the next steps a little easier. That said, despite the fact that I'm a fairly brutal weeder, I'm still coming across some truly scary sections of my collection: spots where I have multiple titles, but most (if not all) are shamefully out of date. This is discouraging for several reasons, not the least of which being that I have absolutely no money to replace these titles. Enter QR Codes.

From Tech Trend to Teaching Tool: Taking the QR Code Plunge! This post is a shout out to a group of fantastic teacher librarians who are “lunching and learning” this Friday in Fayetteville, NC. Because I couldn’t be there in person (or virtually, for that matter) to share in the fun, I promised I’d put together a post about my use of QR Codes in the library for those in the group who are QR curious. I know these fantastic ladies (and gents!) What are QR Codes? First, some basics: Even if you’re not familiar with the term QR Code, chances are you’ve seen these funky, pixelated squares popping up all over the place! Where do QR Codes fit into the library? I know what you're thinking. QR Codes as Book Barcode Bling: Books all over my library are adorned with QR codes that link to all sorts of stuff: book reviews (mine and students), book trailers, author interviews, student projects and countless other web resources that either help pique a student’s interest in the book or extend their learning once hooked. HOW Do I Get Started?
