AB  - A QR (Quick Response) code is a two-dimensional barcodeoriginally designed for use in the automotive industry. QR codes containencoded information which is often a URL of a website. In this work, weinvestigate using QR codes to help teachers convey information to studentssuffering from hearing loss. Using QR codes for education can be highlyengaging and can provide a new way to give students new information. Teacherscan help deaf and hearing impaired students address their needs by giving themadditional support to access audio-visual videos posted online. During classesteachers can also record their lessons in sign language and post them onlinefor students to access from home while completing homework assignments. Thehomework sheets can have QR codes linking to the teacher’s directions or videofiles of that assignment’s targets/overview, online tutorials or other websitesfor additional support. Additionally, teachers can put their PowerPointpresentations online and provide the students with the QR code to access them.QR codes linking to pre-selected websites for research can be created andprinted by the teacher ahead of time and given to students in the laboratory,and the students can use their tablets (equipped with camera and Internetaccess) to read the code and open such websites. Lastly, QR codes can be usedto give students immediate feedback when QR codes embedded in classroomhandouts and homework sheets link to the answers to problems so students cancheck their work.
