| Summary: | Mobile devices have transformed from the only communication tools to a mobile learning (m-learning) tool. One of the m-learning environment is the incorporated Quick Response (QR) code. QR codes are only two dimensional barcodes used to encode and decode the information. The information embedded under these codes can be URL links, SMS, text and number. The main objective of this paper is to analyze the readiness of QR code usage via m-learning. A survey questionnaire is designed with a five point Likert scale. Fifty four in-service teachers from the Institute of Teacher Education in Malaysia were involved in the data collection process. Then, the data were collected using questionnaires and analyze with SPSS19. The result shows that 89.9% of the teachers are eager to get involved with m-learning. Besides that, 88.9% of them are aware that QR code can be used in their teaching and learning process. We suggest that QR codes should be embedded in our education system as a medium of mobile learning. |
