Students created QR (Quick Response) codes so their documentaries could be accessed by mobile phones. A QR code is a matrix barcode that can be read by camera phones. The code consists of black modules arranged in a square pattern that are placed on a white background. This stores a URL address on the World Wide Web. To view the podcast, a person would take a photo of the code using his mobile phone, which would then access the matching podcast.
Sophomore Makayla Hunt said the students uploaded their videos to YouTube, then added tags to publish their videos. They then created the QR codes.
"If you have a cell phone with a QR app, you can take a picture of it, and it'll bring you straight to our videos," Hunt explained.
"All of resources were on community websites," she said. "We had to find all the information we were going to need, all the pictures, videos and sounds. After that, we got a Windows Moviemaker and created our movie."
Teacher Melanie Wiscount, who taught the class, said she presented the documentaries to the organizations they were about. Read More
