Using Aurasma and QR Codes to Adapt Materials
Monday, November 18, 2013
1:00 pm - 2:30 pm Central Standard Time
Aurasma is a new free app on the scene for both IOS and Android. It is similar to using QR codes, but without the need to print out or stick a code onto a page. Instead, it uses the image of the page as the "trigger" to play a video, display text, play a sound, etc. when the page or image is viewed using the app, through your device's camera. This session will demonstrate how to use Aurasma, the differences between using it and QR codes to adapt materials, ideas for use and requirements for use.
