Using QR Codes in a your (student) poster assessment

Kimberley Birch, a Level 5 student studying BA Business Management added value to her poster assignment through the inclusion of QR Codes which linked to supporting information on a blog. She included a QR Code in each sub-section of the poster, and used a wordpress blog to host the additional information. This approach ensured the material displays very well on small screen devices, such as an iPod Touch. Therefore, the person reading the poster would simply need to install a QR Code Reader, and extent the learning experience through scanning to access additional information.



This approach is a low threshold application, relatively simple to do and highly effective. If you’d like more information about how you might do this, please email the Elevate Team, elevate@ucs.ac.uk
