QR Codes and Primary Sources Activity |
Mary Johnson |
QR Resources:
Images from the Industrial Revolution (handouts of primary sources)
Thinking about Primary Sources graphic organizer
Activity Steps:
- In pairs or groups of three, study an image from the Industrial Revolution. Using the Thinking about Primary Sources graphic organizer, do a basic analysis of the image.
- Discuss how you think the image relates to the Industrial Revolution and what additional information you need to confirm or refute your ideas.
- Using a QR code reader on a mobile device, scan the QR code on the primary source to navigate to its bibliographic information. What more does this record tell you?
- Taking your questions from the primary source analysis, investigate ways to build an historical context around that primary source:
- Search online for related primary and secondary sources.
- Select 1-3 useful sources per person.
- Create a QR code that connects each source to a website or document that helps build context or answers your questions.
- Print each QR code, and tape it to the primary source.
5. Share sources and QR guides with another group. Consider these questions:
- How do your selections of primary and secondary sources build contextual knowledge of your original primary source.
- Why did you choose them?
- What information is still missing?
