How Students Can Make Use of QR Codes

By Joe Waters from QR Codes For Dummies, Portable Edition

Students are probably the best candidates to actually use QR Codes. They’re digitally-savvy, smartphone-equipped, and eager for as little interaction as possible with teachers and professors. QR Codes in the classroom belong more to them than anyone else.

Invest in a QR Code stamp. Use it on everything you turn in so your teacher always has your name and contact information.
Share your notes. Forward a QR Code to a friend to give her online access to your class notes.
Make some extra money. Put your QR Code on bulletin boards that link readers to tutoring sessions with you.
Add depth to presentations. Show your teacher and your class you did your research. Give them the option on your slides of scanning a QR Code for more information.
Test yourself. Put QR Codes on objects like stones or bones on a skeleton that will test your knowledge of the names and function.
Organize study groups. Hand out QR Codes in class with information on the date and location of the next study group.
Party time. Celebrate the weekend in style. Include a QR Code on your next party invite with the time, location, and your phone number.
