UniSA have recently started a pilot using QR codes on some of its publications. QR codes only recently came across my radar when a friend mentioned them to me so when I saw a code (similar to image on left) on one of those big cardbooard movie advertisements that cinema foyers have, I knew what it was.
What is a QR code? QR stands for Quick Response. A QR code is kind of like a barcode that’s on just about everything we buy, but a QR code can hold a lot more information like web addresses and other textual information like contact information.
We’ve written more info about what QR codes are, and we’ve even got an explanation video on how to read them.
