Making History Local, Digital, and Relevant: The GeoHistorian Project Mark van ’t Hooft Thomas McNeal 2012 ISTE Conference San Diego, CA

Origins We started investigating the use of cell phones for video conferencing in 2005 as an alternative to traditional forms of video conferencing. It was asynchronous, with predetermined interview questions, and roving student reporters who videotaped answers with a mobile phone. We played around with live video-streaming, and a couple of years ago we started experimenting with QR codes.

The GeoHistorian Project The GeoHistorian project was created to: Give students the opportunity to become local historians and create digital resources for their communities; Demonstrate how resource sites near and far (in this case a local historical society and historical sites) can be valuable learning resources; Investigate cell phones as an educational tool outside of the classroom; Demonstrate how digital content can be used to amplify learning on location.

What Happens to the QR Codes (and the Stories)? He scans a QR code from a marker at the depot with his mobile phone Student-created, historical digital content is downloaded to the phone A tourist visits the Atlantic & Great Western Railroad Depot in Kent, Ohio

QR or 2D Codes A QR Code is a matrix barcode (or two- dimensional code) with embedded information such as text, an address or phone number, or a URL (multimedia!!). The codes can be read by camera phones with a QR code reader.

Creating QR Codes: What Do You Need? Smart Phone with QR code reader QR code generator Digital content and a place to upload it to (e.g. flickr, YouTube or a mobile website such as wirenode). QR codes

Digital Content Considerations Link to existing content or make your own. Smart phones from different carriers all have different operating systems and require different video and audio formats. Formats for video and audio clips –Windows mobile - Windows Media Video (WMV) –iPhone - QuickTime (MOV) –Android – Mpeg4 (mp4) –Audio - WAV, short for Waveform Audio File Format –Or upload to YouTube or similar site

QR Code Generators qr-code-generator/

QR Code Readers code-software/ (great list here) Readers can usually be downloaded directly from the Internet to your phone and should be free. QR Reader (does regular bar codes too)

Try It Out! Any of the QR codes you see here can be scanned. Download a QR code reader to your phone if you haven’t done so yet: –Go to on your mobile phone. –I-nigma will automatically identify your handset type. Use your phone or iPod Touch to scan the codes to see the embedded content.
