So it is no surprise that education is now teaching with the same technologies. And the latest most powerful kid on the block is QR codes. The National academy of Teachers and QR codes The Siemens Foundation based in America, supports education in the areas of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Mathematics. Together with Discovery Education they have introduced the STEM education program for teachers. Many interesting projects have come out of the the resulting National Academy of Teachers with QR codes. Linking to Portfolios Vicki Davis, a real believer in the power of QR codes in the classroom asked her students to use use QR codes to link to virtual portfolios. For example, a student’s cover page would include a QR code that links to an online summary of his or her work for the year. From that summary, students create hyperlinks to blog post assignments, videos, and more.
