Frequently Asked Questions

How can educators use QR codes in the classroom?

Educators can use QR codes to link students to assignment portals, reading materials, video resources, contact information, and feedback forms. Printing QR codes on handouts and posters reduces the friction of typing long URLs.

Are QR codes safe for use in schools?

Yes, when used properly. QR codes themselves are just links. Ensure the destination URLs are appropriate, hosted on trusted domains, and reviewed regularly. Avoid linking to sites that require personal information from minors.

Can I use a QR code for parent-teacher conference sign-ups?

Yes. Create a QR code that links to your scheduling tool or a sign-up form. Print it on the invitation letter or display it at the school entrance so parents can book their slot by scanning with their phone.

What should an educator's QR code link to at academic conferences?

At conferences, link your QR code to your academic profile, published research, presentation slides, or a digital vCard. This makes it easy for fellow educators and researchers to follow up with you after your session.

How do I print a QR code that scans reliably on paper?

Ensure the QR code is at least 1 inch by 1 inch, printed at 300 DPI or higher, with strong contrast between the code and background. Test the printed code with multiple phones before distributing handouts.
