Don’t know what to do with the square thingie?
No worries!
We’ll take care of it!
You are about to
become the coolest
person you know
because…
QR Codes are
qrazy!
To scan, you need a QR code reader.
Android iOS
QR codes are around us every day.
Let’s try it out!
On your iPad / iPhone / iPod, launch Qrafter.
It should look like this picture.
Now, position the iPad camera over the QR code. It will chime. Hit “Go to URL.”
d
Let’s try another one. Choose “Scan with Camera” first.
How about this one? Remember to choose “Scan with Camera” first.
This one isn’t a web address. It’s just text. What’s it say?
d
Anyone tweeting?
Last one. Try this.
Did you get it? Save me into your contacts.

Let’s try a little curricular content now.
qrazy!

Solve for X.
x + 2(x − 24) = 78
So how do you make ’em?
qrazy!
GoQR.me Input text or URL. Choose size. Select “open.” Then right-click (control+click) to copy-paste.
For presentations, choose at least 500x500.
For handouts, 125x125 to 200x200 is good.
For a flyer, biggest is best.
Leave white space around the QRcode.
GoQR.me Input text or URL. Choose size. Select “open.” Then copy-paste.
For the audio ones, use http://qrvoice.net/ Add the text in “say what?”. Click the QR button. Slide to choose the size.
Click on the QR code. Right-click (control+click) to copy-paste.
Fantastic ideas for QR codes. from Tom Barrett & Paul Simbeck-Hampson

Could you make one of these? Download the template at http://thedaringlibrarian.wikispaces.com/BTSN
Can you change a “Sit & Git” to a “Meet, Greet & Scan”? See http://mesmrswhitesclass.blogspot.com/search/label/QR%20code
Make ’em with bottle caps even! See http://bit.ly/PdRwQQ for details.

Augmented Reality
ColAR App
You need 2 parts!
App Pages
Print out the coloring pages from http://www.colARApp.com
You do the pages first.
Pages
Print out the coloring pages from http://www.colARApp.com
1. Color the page(s). 2. You can print out all
of the coloring pages, but you can’t scan them all unless you pay for the upgrade.
Then you use the app.
App
Print out the coloring pages from http://www.colARApp.com
1. Choose “Play” in the app.
2. Make sure you can see the whole page with your camera.
3. Be pa5ent. The page will turn blue/green when it’s right.
Then you use the app.
App

1. Choose “Play” in the app.
2. Make sure you can see the whole page with your camera.
3. Be pa5ent. The page will turn blue/green when it’s right then start.
ColAR App Tips
1. Yes, it’s gimmicky. But it’s fun! 2. Anything you put on the open spaces (front/
back of mouse, flag of the plane, etc.) of the coloring sheet will show up in the animation.
3. So, you can do math practice, etc. to have students show their answers. It could be fun homework.
4. You can’t make the pages yourself. L
Aurasma
On your iPad / iPhone / iPod, launch Aurasma. It should look like this
picture.
Swipe past the tutorial till you get to the login
screen. Then choose “Skip” at
the bottom.
Look for the 4 corners & the “A” at the
bottom. Now we’re ready to
scan!
Now, position the camera over the image above. It will “swirl” & your aura will start playing.
Try scanning this one.
Let’s try a little curricular content now.
augmented reality
On on the scanning screen, click the “A” at the bottom. Choose the magnifying glass & Channels.

So how do you make ’em?
Here’s a really great step-by-step handout: http://ipad4schools.org/2013/09/28/bring-schools-to-
life-with-aurasma-app/
To create my question & answer, I used Powerpoint, making 2 slides. Then did screen captures & emailed them to myself on my mobile device with Aurasma.
Great example in Science Classroom: http://smithsciencegms.wordpress.com/2013/09/10/

This one took much more effort!

It’s #4 near India & Saudia
Arabia.
AurasmaTips
1. It’s easiest when everything is done on one device (overlays & targets).
2. For more sophisticated stuff, use the Aurasma Studio.
3. The easiest way for the other devices to see your auras is by making them public. (It is possible to use “private” & sending out the “Link to Subscribe.”)

For more sophistication, try Aurasma Studio.
