A QR Code in my PhD Dissertation

2011-04-06T10:58:00.009-06:00

I successfully defended my dissertation on Nov 23, 2010 from the University of Colorado at Boulder.

It was quite a process formatting this 213 page document for getting my PhD. It felt like a trip back in time as I imagine the format is so rigorously defined that it has not been allowed to change much over several decades. This gave me the impression that it was also very static and uninteresting. I thought to myself "A copy would be placed in Norlin Library at the University of Colorado's Boulder Campus and it would sit there, unchanged, for decades (hopefully)."

So, how could I introduce a dynamic, yet useful aspect to my dissertation? Then I remembered QR codes! These codes are recommended for this exact situation - getting a reader to interact with a printed document. There are lots of novel ideas on where to place QR codes, check it out.

I did need to think a little about how I could generate a QR code that could be changed with time. I didn't want to target of the code to always be www.mikepascoe.com for example. So instead I direct the QR code to a file on my server, which allows me to redirect to what source I want using some html code.

Some ideas I had about where to link the QR code to included:
- My online CV
- My profile for my new job
- The video of my dissertation defense on vimeo (when it is ready)
- A digital business card
- The record on the ProQuest website
- My recent publications on PubMed
- My ResearcherID profile on ISI Web of Knowledge
- My profile on NeuroTree
- My twitter or LinkedIn profiles
- My dissertation study featured on the cover of the Journal of Neurophysiology
- Search results in Google for "Mike Pascoe"
- Probably a thousand other places if I let my mind wander...

I'm now tinkering around with the use of iFlyMobi to synthesize ALL of the above bits of information.

If you scan it right now (and you should, go ahead and pull out that smart phone), you'll soon be listening to a sound clip of me thanking you for picking up my book and I give you my email address if you have any questions.

So I'm very pleased with the way this turned out. As far as I know, this is the first implementation of a QR code in a doctoral dissertation (Nov 23, 2010). Let me know if you have seen this in the past OR if you think it's so cool that you plan on doing the same yourself.

UPDATE - Here is the page of my dissertation featuring the QR code:

Expectations...

2010-04-16T09:34:00.001-06:00

Dear CU student:

With this in mind, on April 20, 2010, please do not participate in unlawful
activity that devalues the reputation of your university and degree. At the
same time, encourage your fellow Buffs to act with pride and remember who
they really are - part of a dynamic environment of teaching, research,
learning, and service composed of outstanding faculty and proud students and
alumni.

Be advised that on April 20 the following safety parameters will be
enforced:

-Obey the instructions of public safety officials at all times in entering
and leaving campus, and act with concern for those around you, discouraging
dangerous behavior of any kind.

-Parking limitations similar to those during CU home football games will be
enforced. Parking on campus will be greatly limited, available only at
meters or for those holding CU parking permits. Traffic barricades will be
set up at Colorado Avenue and Folsom Street and on 18th Street to limit
traffic in the heart of campus. Please observe all parking regulations
within the City of Boulder.

-While police will be present on the Norlin Quad to support crowd safety,
individuals found using marijuana on their way to or from the 420 gathering,
or in other locations on campus, face a citation from CUPD. Likewise, no
alcohol will be permitted on the Norlin Quad or elsewhere on campus, and
intoxicated persons could be taken into custody or escorted to an alcohol
recovery center, or both.

-CU students who violate the alcohol or drug provisions of the CU Code of
Conduct in the ways described above, or in other ways, are also subject to
penalties from CU-Boulder's Office of Judicial Affairs.

At the Norlin Quad, no vending of any merchandise or food will be permitted.
No buying and selling of marijuana will be allowed. No barbecue grills,
structures, slacklines, sporting or game apparatus, or large signs may be
erected.

We want to re-emphasize that our intention in this communication is safety.
This is an unsanctioned event on our campus, but regardless, we all desire
it be carried out with no injuries to individuals and no damage to property.
We ask for, and expect, your full cooperation in achieving this important
goal.

Sincerely,

Philip P. DiStefano, Chancellor
Julie Wong, Vice Chancellor of Student Affairs
Deb Coffin, Dean of Students
