Jean Hoerni

Jean Hoerni was born September 26, 1924 in Switzerland. He was considered a pioneer of his time because, he invented the Planar process which is also know as the Micro Chip. The Planar process is a manufacturing process used to build individual components of transistors and connect them. It’s the basic process that is use to build integrated circuits. The Planar Process is a silicon-transistor manufacturing process with a fractional-micrometer-thick oxide layer that is grown on a silicon substrate
    Hoerni’s invention is still used toady. His invention made it so we can make computer smaller and less space consuming. But they still can hold just as much if not more information as older computer models. This discovery will most likely help us reduce computer size in the feature as well. With out Hoerni’s invention I would probably not be typing this very blog post right now in this class room with so many computer because they would still be to large and there wouldn’t be enough space to fit enough computers to have a full class.

I’m back once again and still talking about QR Codes!
No, my phone is not able to read these messages. But yes I think this could possibly become a new trend. Especially with all the new iPones and iPads coming out that everyone is buying which can read these messages. I think QR Codes can be used in the classroom for the learning foreign languages. Also you could place them on all the bones of a science class skeleton.  

My QR Code


Here is a QR code made by me, myself and I. I made this for my Online A class. Devices like the iPod touch and iPhone with cameras can read these. They are becoming of more use at place such as airports for boarding passes and some schools are having teachers puts a QR Code on everything in the classroom that gives its name in a foreign languages to help students learn different languages. Could this possibly be the new trend?
