Quick QR Codes By: Justin Music
Definition • QR Code- “a machine-readable code consisting of an array of black and white squares, typically used for storing URLs or other information for reading by the camera on a smartphone” • Quick QR Codes- “is a hosted service for generating, managing and tracking QR Codes”
Descriptions continued • The system consists of managed and standard codes. Managed codes give you the ability to track clicks and update information without modifying the QR Code. All this can be done in our simplified user interface • These QR codes can be everywhere either on your business card, signs, flyers, and brochures
Class room apps • Kids in today classroom use QR Codes for reading purpose and other subjects. http://youtu.be/hSA3YsBy_pU
Strengths • Ease of use • Range of uses • QR codes are tractable • QR codes can be cost effective • Easy way to send mobile users to online content
challenges • Users need to download a QR code reader • Scanning can be a long process • Lack of awareness • Other options are available
Personal views • I have mixed feelings about the QR codes yes they may be easy to use, but there is other alterative apps out there that do the same thing. • Also I feel like they may be easy to hack if you have either the childes information and the parents etc. • But if you can make it past those things then they will be okay to use in school.
