4/2/12 QR Codes and Our History

For this project we will be building a web of historical pages for our school and district website that will bring the historical photos at Tok School to the web. We have many wonderful historical photos on the walls of our hallways at Tok School. However, that is the only public place where these photos and any information about them exist. We will be studying these photos more and learning more about the history behind them. Each group of students will take the information currently displayed and research for more information to create a wiki page about each of the photos. We will link these sites together as an informational historical site for our school and district web pages. We will also be generating QR Codes to post alongside each picture in the hallway, so that visitors to our school may also go to these web pages you create to learn more.
