QR codes allow users to access webpages and other online content using the camera on their smartphone. A QR code is a type of two-dimensional barcode that can be read by QR reader apps. To use a QR code, a user scans it with their phone camera which then opens a link, downloads a file, or triggers another action. QR codes can support learning by providing additional content related to textbooks, presentations, assignments, and more. Some benefits are dynamic presentations and interactive textbooks. Limitations include requiring smartphone access and comfort with technology.
QR stands for Quick Response code
Invented in 1994 by the Toyota Motors subsidiary Denso Wave to track vehicles and parts during the manufacturing process
It is a two dimensional barcode, typically seen as a white square with black geometric shapes
It is basically a type of barcode which is readable by any camera-enabled smart phone

Lightning Talk #9: How UX and Data Storytelling Can Shape Policy by Mika Aldabaux singapore
How can we take UX and Data Storytelling out of the tech context and use them to change the way government behaves?
Showcasing the truth is the highest goal of data storytelling. Because the design of a chart can affect the interpretation of data in a major way, one must wield visual tools with care and deliberation. Using quantitative facts to evoke an emotional response is best achieved with the combination of UX and data storytelling.
Content personalisation is becoming more prevalent. A site, it's content and/or it's products, change dynamically according to the specific needs of the user. SEO needs to ensure we do not fall behind of this trend.
Succession “Losers”: What Happens to Executives Passed Over for the CEO Job?
By David F. Larcker, Stephen A. Miles, and Brian Tayan
Stanford Closer Look Series
Overview:
Shareholders pay considerable attention to the choice of executive selected as the new CEO whenever a change in leadership takes place. However, without an inside look at the leading candidates to assume the CEO role, it is difficult for shareholders to tell whether the board has made the correct choice. In this Closer Look, we examine CEO succession events among the largest 100 companies over a ten-year period to determine what happens to the executives who were not selected (i.e., the “succession losers”) and how they perform relative to those who were selected (the “succession winners”).
We ask:
• Are the executives selected for the CEO role really better than those passed over?
• What are the implications for understanding the labor market for executive talent?
• Are differences in performance due to operating conditions or quality of available talent?
• Are boards better at identifying CEO talent than other research generally suggests?

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
Builder.ai Founder Sachin Dev Duggal's Strategic Approach to Create an Innova...Ramesh Iyer
In today's fast-changing business world, Companies that adapt and embrace new ideas often need help to keep up with the competition. However, fostering a culture of innovation takes much work. It takes vision, leadership and willingness to take risks in the right proportion. Sachin Dev Duggal, co-founder of Builder.ai, has perfected the art of this balance, creating a company culture where creativity and growth are nurtured at each stage.
Neuro-symbolic is not enough, we need neuro-*semantic*Frank van Harmelen
Neuro-symbolic (NeSy) AI is on the rise. However, simply machine learning on just any symbolic structure is not sufficient to really harvest the gains of NeSy. These will only be gained when the symbolic structures have an actual semantics. I give an operational definition of semantics as “predictable inference”.
All of this illustrated with link prediction over knowledge graphs, but the argument is general.

16. A QR Code is a matrix code
(or two-dimensional bar
code) created by Japanese
corporation Denso-Wave in
1994.
The "QR" is derived from
"Quick Response", as the
creator intended the code to
allow its contents to be
decoded at high speed.
QR Codes are common in
Japan where they are
currently the most popular
type of two dimensional
codes.
17. How does it work?
You need a Smartphone
◦ Android, iPhone, Blackberry
◦ With a camera (auto focus)
◦ And a data plan ;)
You need a QR Reader App
You need a QR Code

27. Use of QR to support learning
Adding QR codes to Word
documents for students to check
their answers.
(Module : Activity & Lesson)
◦ Put a QR code at the end of a slide
presentation with the URL for accessing
the slide show to a knowledge-check quiz
on the content.
28. Use of QR to support learning
Use QR codes to vote using
twittertools. Create a QR code for
every voting command
29. Voting Command – session
feedback
Would you recommend this?
Yes No
No need to type any messages, just scan and vote. The vote would
be send as an SMS to an pre-set number in the QR code and would
be accumulated.

31. Use of QR to support learning
QR Codes to enhance/extend
information in books & printed
material.
◦ Print a QR Code on a sticker and place in
a text book at the relevant point.
◦
QR Code for QR Movie Learners can scan the QR Code – would
be taken to related material, for example a
video, web page or source of further
information.

Easter Egg Scavenger.
◦ Create an "easter egg/scavenger
hunt". The students must seek out the
QR codes that are posted in a given
area.
◦ Use the codes to go to information to
answer a question and/or find a clue.
◦ Using adaptive release, allow access to a
fun website via a QR code after learning
is done.
36. Use of QR to support learning
Add QR codes that lead to book
trailers to the backs of reference
books.

A typical 1 dimensional barcodecontains 22 charactersQR Codes aretwo-dimensional and can have up to 4000 alpha-numeric characters embedded in themMicrosoft has a proprietary version called MS Tags that can only be read by certain readers
2 things to consider about readers:SpeedHow many steps does it take to get to the information?Some readers take you directly to the informationSome readers offer you options after you scan:Open link in browserShow urlCopy urlSend urlSave to favoritesNeoReader was very slow.ScanLife is very fast.i-nigma is very fastUpCode was kind of choppy.http://www.mobile-barcodes.com/qr-code-software/ : Ability to choose by phone type
When you create and save a QR code, you save it as an image. I have saved it as both a jpeg and a png image.The area that is most relevant here is the gray area throughout = data and correction error.Up to 30% of a QR code’s data can be missing or obstructed, and still be scanned.The more you manipulate this area the more likely the QR code will become corrupted.And, it doesn't matter whether the QR code is upside down or wrapped around a curved surface, the message will still get through.
