Abstract

Smart learners are lifelong learners whose potential is unleashed by the seamless use of smart technologies (i.e., smartphones, tablets, tablet PCs, sensor network nodes, contact-less smart cards, RFID, and QR codes) to access huge amounts of open resources and connections, anywhere and anytime. Personal, and personalized, smart technologies increase a learner's independence in a novel way, and make the context for engaging in study more tailored and potentially self-directed. This chapter illustrates the QR code format, a framework that supports smart learning by the integration of paper-based and digital learning material through quick response (QR) code. The format was devised within the research project Learning4All (2009-2012) and was validated by several learning experiences of English as a foreign language (EFL) for different clusters. Subsequently, the format was selected as an element of techno-pedagogical innovation in the Eureka project (2012-2014), a network of 11 schools in Apulia, Italy, for the enhancement of curriculum continuity from middle into high school.
