Aloha Friday

In Hawaii, Aloha Friday is the day that they take it easy and look forward to the weekend. On Fridays, I'll post a simple question for you to answer, nothing that requires a lengthy response. If you’d like to participate, just post your own question on your blog and leave your link at An Island Life. Don’t forget to visit the other participants! It’s a great way to make new bloggy friends!

QR Codes are all the rage among teachers trying to use innovative ideas in the classroom. I'm even thinking of trying to incorporate them. What is a QR code? It stands for Quick Response Code. "The system has become popular... due to its fast readability and large storage capacity compared to standard UPC barcodes. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern on a white background." (Source Citation for quote)

My questions:  Do you ever scan QR codes that you see in restaurants, businesses, magazines, etc.?  Do you find it useful?  Do you see an educational benefit for using them in the classroom?

Here's one for you to scan.  There's a reminder for you embedded in this code!  Let me know what you think!
