How-To Link Images to QR Codes

QR Codes are a fantastic way to take students directly to a website and I’ve shared tons of ways I like to use them!  If you want your students to find a picture without doing a Google Image search, it’s easy to create a QR code that takes students directly to a photograph. Here are tips for how to link images to QR codes in your classroom. I think you’ll love this strategy!

How-To Link Images to QR Codes

1. Do an Internet search to find the perfect picture

3. Paste the Image URL into a QR code generator

4. When students scan the QR code they’ll be taken straight to the picture – not a website with text, advertisements or other links to click on.
