generate（使产生） the codes， and in the end everything gets easier．” Said Guo，“When students finish the homework， they keep it on WeChat． Then， each student makes his own QR code and gives it to me． So I can check their work anywhere using my computer or telephone．”The QR codes can be sent to Mr． Guo by email， QQ and WeChat． When Guo scans（扫描）his students’ QR codes， their homework appears on his phone． He finds that their homework becomes more creative， with many pictures， music and even videos．Guo’s students like the new way and think it is interesting．“We are living in the information age． Many students like to work with computers， which makes learning more fun．” Said Tingting，a student of Guo’s．“The pape r is not easy to keep， but the code is easy to keep and share．” Guo said，“It is
