Tutorial #3: Delivr
Delivr is an easy-to-use QR code generator that the creative educator can use in various ways in their classroom. QR (short for "quick response") codes are barcode looking devices that can be scanned by a QR reader app to take a user to a predefined URL or other online resource. Delivr allows the user to create these codes in a matter of minutes and instantly begin sharing with students, parents, and colleagues. Teachers can use these codes to replace "bell ringer" activities written out on the board, create learning stations around the room, or link students to important class announcements or schedules, among many other ideas. The fact that the QR code can remain constant while the link that it points to can be changed make these simple tools very effective and can easily replace hours of copying and handing out papers. A free account is offered with Delivr to instantly get the interested educator up and running.
