before the session?– How was the QR code introduced? – Did you point it out to the audience and tell them
what content it was linked to? – Was the QR code on the projector screen (more
difficult to scan) or was it presented in handouts?
Following up with your audience
• Summary of key points• Copy of session tweets• Document with all QR codes• Bookmarking resources
