"So, what are QR Codes, you ask? Well, you know what barcodes are, like when you buy something at the store and the clerk scans a code to enter the item and amount into the till? The QR (Quick Response) Code is kind of like that, except that it offers much more information. Quite often the QR Code will give you a link to a website, or a text message, image, etc. To read the QR Code, you need to install a QR Code Reader onto your device. There are many available for free. I like using i-nigma, seen below. Simply open the app, point it at a QR Code and your device will do the rest. Try it with the code above. It should take you back to this blog."

A QR Code Reader has been added to the App List for 2014 at Prendiville. This is a great little article on what QR (quick-read) codes are, what they can do, and some suggestions to teach with them/ Treasure-hunts, fact-finding and excursions will never be the same!
Wondering how to use QR codes in your classroom? Here are some great ideas.
SWe've used this in classes and the students loved it.
