QR code is a typeof two dimensional barcodes used to provide easy access to information through Smartphone. The QR Code systemhas become admired due to its features such as easy to generate, quick readability, and an abundant information load.Because of these features, QR code exhibits potential for integration in education.The research paper studies the use of QR code in education. QR code can be integrated with Smartphone whichcan be very effective teaching aid in the classroom. QR code can be linked with learning material which may be in theform of Plain text, website URL, YouTube Video, PDF file and Image file. QR code for this learning material can begenerated by making use of QR code generators which are freely available. This encoded information can be decodedby scanning the QR code with the mobile device having camera and QR reader and scanner software. The study showsthat QR code integration in learning will enhance motivation, communication, collaboration and critical thinking in theclassroom.
