QR Codes:

Quick Response (QR) codes can be found in magazines, on posters, on informational displays at museum exhibits, and many other places. I am sure you have seen them before, but may not have known the name. This week you will have a chance to read a couple of QR codes and also make one of your own.

If you want to read a QR code, you'll need a QR reader. Go to your smartphone or tablet app store and search for QR reader. All the app stores have one and the QR reader should be free. Install the QR reader and then use the QR reader app and your camera to read the 2 QR codes below.

6. Where did the 1st QR code take you?

7. What did the 2nd QR code ask you to do?

Now it's time to make your own QR code. Go to http://qrcode.kaywa.com/ (Links to an external site.)Links to an external site.. To the right of URL, Contact, and Coupon, click on More to see more options. You will make a Text QR code, since it is free to make and does not require you to register.

8. Make a Text QR code that includes your name, make and model of your phone, and state your carrier. For example -- Abigail Bornstein, Samsung Galaxy S6, Verizon. Generate the QR code and then either copy or snip the code and paste it under #8 on your answer page. You may have to resize your QR code so it is easy for your instructor to quickly scan your code.
