Quick response codes for virtual learner evaluation of teaching and attendance monitoring

Abstract

Monitoring attendance and obtaining timely learner evaluations for virtual teaching sessions can be challenging. At our Obstetrics and Gynecology webinar programme, we have utilised Quick Response (QR) codes this purpose. Following each session, attendees scan an on-screen QR code which links to an online evaluation form and registers their attendance. Feedback can therefore be obtained quickly, is scalable to large participant numbers and is securely stored in digital format. QR reader applications are widely available and cost-free, which makes this technique accessible for learners. Using QR codes for teaching evaluation is simple and could be adopted across many educational applications.

Writing, reading, and critiquing reviews

“…In Quick Response codes for virtual learner evaluation of teaching and attendance monitoring, Roxana Mo and co-authors 37 used Quick Response (QR) codes to monitor attendance and obtain evaluations for virtual teaching sessions. They found QR codes valuable for quick and simple feedback that could be used for many educational applications.…”

The effect of using a QR code-enhanced brochure on students' knowledge and skill learning outcomes

“…Utilizing QR codes for teaching gymnastics skills can offer numerous advantages. Firstly, QR codes can be employed to track attendance and gather prompt learner evaluations of virtual teaching sessions, simplifying the process of monitoring engagement and obtaining feedback [6]. Also, QR codes can be used in evaluation systems that don't need any devices to accurately rate and analyse each gymnastics move, taking into account things like consistency, length, and regularity, giving full report on its quality [7].…”
