In the QR Code Generator by kaywa, you can create your own message as "text" or even "sms". With kaywa you can also create a QR code that links to a specific URL.

Once generating these QR codes, you can copy and paste them into a document or even put them on your blog or website.

You can create a special lesson or activity that could get your students
using their qr code readers to get information that you want to give them. You could create questions and have the answers or hints to these questions hidden in the qr code. If you have them fill out their worksheet answers first, you could then let them go back through their worksheet with their iPod to check their answers by scanning the various QR codes on the worksheet itself.
