Teaching Materials Developed Using QR Code Technology in Science Classes

Plant identification code: Learning media based on qr-code for plant exploration in P-WEC conservation area

“…So for this exploration, QR-Code-based PIC media was developed to make it easier for students and visitors to access information related to the desired plants. This PIC media made of mica plate with a size of 5x15.5 so that it can withstand all weather, then the barcode can be accessed using a scanner application where it will go directly to the website which contains information sheets containing classification data plants, descriptions, cultivation and benefits that can be accessed by students at P-WEC conservation area which will later become a plant information database, that can be shown in Figure 2 below: The use of QR-Code is also able to increase efficiency in the learning environment because it prevents students from wasting time on search engines and being exposed to irrelevant information, besides that, easy access is also offered because the QR-Code can be accessed by students' mobile devices through a scanner application so that allows students to access more information more easily and has the potential to increase student learning potential (Musthofa, 2016;Ucak, 2019). The use of QR Codes is also able to facilitate student learning, where in their research the majority of students think that the use of QR Codes in learning medicinal plants is easy to employ, this is because most of the respondents stated that they are interested in this learning system so that it can have a positive impact on students.…”

Ua Informa Contribution to Attract Prospective Students: An Exploratory Study

“…Facing these results on student acceptability of outdoor game-based campus visits supported by mobile devices, which are unusual features in this type of institution promotion (Andri et al, 2018;Groff et al, 2015), higher education institutions should consider to explore this approach. This recommendation becomes more relevant when considering the benefits of outdoor games for players pointed in the literature, namely personal self-development, increased digital competence, and engagement in challenging learning situations (Baysal et al, 2022;Hwang et al, 2016;Marques & Pombo, 2021;Robson et al, 2015;Uçak, 2019). Institutions can also consider that students may not appreciate too sunny weather conditions, and program these visits preferably outside the hotter hours of the day.…”

“…The potential of the use of the mentioned devices in educational contexts includes the development of digital competences by students. For example, a simple technology, such as the Quick Response codes (QR codes), allows students to develop meaningful and contextualized learning on curricular topics, while simultaneously gaining experience in the use of digital technologies (Uçak, 2019). Hence, and related with the pervasive access of student population to mobile devices, QR codes are becoming widespread in educational contexts as well.…”

“…QR codes can also be used to access desired information and contents, thus, preventing students from wasting time on search engines and find irrelevant or unreliable information. Other advantages include giving access to animated or interactive content, besides the prevention of paper wastage (Uçak, 2019).…”

Neph E Club-Successful Social Media Learning Model-Six Years on with 1K Nephrologist as Members

“…In the present model this barrier was breached and content shared on daily basis was key to success. QR code type content sharing is widely used by social media educators to share their educational contents as a link [11].…”
