The Application of QR Code Technology in Registering Varieties of Plants of School's Botanical Gardens

Abstract

        The purposes of this research was to 1) develop an application of QR code system (quick response code) 2) evaluate the efficiency of QR code system and 3) examine user’s satisfaction toward QR code system for registering the varieties of plants in school’s botanical garden. There are three main groups of target population. First group was the 5 experts who develop the system. Second group was 15 students who are studying in Business Computer, and last group was 15 Vongchavalitkul University’s staffs. The total sample size of the research was 35 respondents. The researcher employed SDLC system to be the standard in developing the QR code system. Regarding to the research instruments, consisting of 1) QR code system for registering the varieties of plants in school’s botanical garden, 2) Questionnaires for investigating the efficiency of the system, and 3) Questionnaires for examining the user’s satisfaction. The statistics analysis employed percentage, mean and standard deviation in this research.

        The research found that 1) the development of QR code system was divided into 2 primary functions: QR code for mobile application and web application for registration management of varieties of plants in school’s botanical garden; 2) the evaluation of the efficiency of proposed QR code system was responded as high level by the 5 experts who develop the system  and 3) the overall user’s satisfaction was relatively high level.
