@UlsterUniPhD Echo such sentiments. Not yet sure on the quantity of qualitative analysis my project will entail but I wish I'd had such seminars before my MPhil! Thanks to all involved in organising and Simon for sharing a wealth of information.

Just starting on a new journey- back North and back to academia. Daunting but exciting embarking on a PhD at Ulster University in AR, Data Analytics and Smart Digital Education.

#MarkRichardson and #DuncanGarner That's so last Century - backing up and backing up on external drives. Try uploading to the cloud - no fires up there! Google photos or similar stores photos off terra firma.

@sarahcorkill Yes Google drawings is an excellent tool for the tool box and often overlooked and under used. The embedded clickable links are really cool, bringing life to pictures.

@Jordan_priestle An excellent question. The easiest and quickest to use? Depends on what your goal for the activity is probably - there is no one size fits all.

@Jordan_priestle Figuring out what, and even more importantly, when and how, to use to enhance mlearning is the P1 question. Evaluation tools at the press of a button?

Here is the QR code I put together for the mLearning activity (week 7) for my L3 Chemistry class looking at Hess' Law.

QR codes are versatile visually interactive tool that opens up many avenues for sharing work, information and resources from a variety of sources and platforms. #gdite

[James Van den Broek @Jamesvdbroek]

According to (Rikala & Kankaanranta, 2012)planning tasks with QR codes is arduous... it takes too much of the teachers’ time and energy to organize QR activities. Do you agree?
