In this week’s assignment, I created a short presentation that shows learners how to identify and read QR Codes. The reason why I have selected this topic is because in my institute, we are trying to get students to learn to scan useful educational resources through embedded the QR Codes in their notes and handouts.
The presentation is located here

I have included a screen capture of one of the slides for discussion in the post.
In this slide, there are actually animation which I will not be able to help you visualized unless you view the google docs presentation file. However, I wanted to just help you see how I apply the multmedia and contiguity principles.
First, I wanted to show a real example of a QR Code, therefore I insert an example of QR Code below the sub-title text.
Secondly, I animated the yellow box with the full meaning of QR Code to appear directly below the blue words QR.
Secondly, I wanted to help learners identify QR Codes by noticing a distinctive feature of the 3 squares located at the 3 corners of the code by using 3 red arrows and a corresponding text caption.
The above are just some examples in my set of slides. Do feel free to view the entire presentation and share with me your views.
Thanks!
