Mr. Guo is a teacher from Xi′an. He asked his students to hand in their homework through a QR code(二維碼). We spent an hour or two in class learning how to generate(使產(chǎn)生) the codes, and in the end everything got easier, "said Guo. When students finish the homework, they keep it on Wechat(微信).Then, each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me. So I can check their homework everywhere using my computer or telephone.

Students can send the QR codes to Mr. Guo by e-mail, QQ and Wechat. When Guo scans(掃描)his students′ QR codes. their homework appears on his phone. He finds that their homework becomes more creative with many pictures, music and even videos.
