QRPedia is a neat website that was featured on Read Write Web. RWW called it "the coolest QR thingy ever made." QRPedia is a tool for creating QR codes for any Wikipedia page in any language. When scanned the codes generated by QRPedia will automatically recognize the language of your phone and delivers the corresponding Wikipedia page in that language. Watch the video below to see how QRPedia is being used in museums.

Using QR Codes to Provide Information

Here are some ideas on different ways to use QR codes to convey information to your students. Scanning is faster and easier than copying down a URL, and you can provide an ongoing “library” of links so students can reference them over and over.

1.    Why not list a number of websites for research? Products like pbSmart Codes allow you to update your mobi-page while your campaign is active, so you can freshen the content even after your QR codes have been shared.

2.    Have a QR code at the front of the class with “video/resource of the day.” Let students scan and watch it as they come in to quiet the class and make those first few minutes productive.

3.    For math, add QR codes to work sheets with a video tutorial on how to solve. (Check out YouTube for hundreds of videos on long division, for instance.)

4.    French or Spanish class? Record the correct pronunciation of a list of words in video (videotape the word, while saying it out loud) and link it to a QR code added to a vocabulary list. Now, students can study a worksheet of words and focus on not just spelling and definitions but also pronunciation.

5.    Create a virtual tour of the school for new students. You could have videos of teachers/principals explaining rules or giving directions and safety tips. This idea would be great for a parents’ night.

6.    Create a puzzle-solving lesson. Put QR codes around the school building and have each one lead to a new science-based clue. The clue leads the students to the next QR code. It’s a 21st century treasure hunt!
