You can import an image into the app and add a caption bubble or dialogue bubble to it!

I just saw your post, and we did this about a month ago in our student and teacher restrooms.<br /><br />I was trying to promote our e-books before summertime, so we advertised them on flyers with selected book jackets and then QR codes to connect to the e-book app.<br /><br />We are 1:1 iPads so no objection to having the device for us, like your interesting problem!<br /><br />I had forgotten we had one in the teacher's lounge RR, and we had a visitor on Friday to our library. When she came out, she walks up to her colleagues and me and says "Wow, you even advertise in the bathroom." <br /><br />I have to give credit to Phil Goerner who gave me the idea! He does a "toilet newsletter" for teachers.<br /><br />Thanks for sharing the instructions!Carolyn Footehttp://www.futura.edublogs.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-6101118119531048562013-05-07T16:45:28.771-04:002013-05-07T16:45:28.771-04:00Excellent idea!

Kid created book trailers using iMovie, PhotoPeach, Animoto, GoAnimate, or even Blabberize is fantastic if you have the time, technology, & ability! <br />Otherwise, using already created book trailers works, too! <br />~G@GwynethJones - The Daring Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00455804690126231910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-35116028468551015292013-05-06T18:09:34.375-04:002013-05-06T18:09:34.375-04:00Hi Gwyneth, To add to your idea, have students cre...Hi Gwyneth, To add to your idea, have students create the book trailers you're uploading to QR Codes. We're hosting a Book Trailer Summer Reading Extravaganza with student made book trailers to promote summer reading. debschihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08856780584685453373noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-38571335115191196252013-05-06T16:49:24.124-04:002013-05-06T16:49:24.124-04:00Hello fellow Jonesie!

If not, let me challenge you to do that next year - your web presence will thank you! ;-) <br />Cheers!<br />~Gwyneth@GwynethJones - The Daring Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00455804690126231910noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-42395534970593910572013-05-06T16:46:05.055-04:002013-05-06T16:46:05.055-04:00Thanks Annette for your comment & I see your p...Thanks Annette for your comment & I see your point. But, devils advocate here, we've got to be realistic & know that kids have their phones in the bathroom. Grownups do, too! Of course I cringe when I hear people talking on their cellies in the bathroom - it happens. <br /><br />So, go with the idea of signs around the school & skip the loo, my darlin! ;-) (couldn't resist, sorry!)

I borrowed a set of Ipod Touches from the district tech office and we had so much fun. I even had a 5th grader demonstrate QR codes to the general public at our district tech fair. We will be doing this again next year...Corie Jonesnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4128908838311784462.post-40604429585597237792013-05-05T21:53:32.964-04:002013-05-05T21:53:32.964-04:00We ARE a BYOD school, but NO phones are EVER allow...We ARE a BYOD school, but NO phones are EVER allowed in a bathroom. We should NEVER encourage the use of a camera in a bathroom! (which is basically what you do with a QR code - take a picture of it.) Please, I would encourage no library, whether public or school or any business, for that matter, to put QR codes in a bathroom for any reason.<br /><br />But I do LOVE the idea of putting them on signs and posters in the hall and other places! I've been putting them in my library, but maybe I'll expand to the halls!Annette Millshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13850197520930988077noreply@blogger.com
