Therefore, the purpose of this study was to apply QR Code and mobile phone as a mobile device to recognize the plants in campus and develop an inquiry-based lesson, which can enhance students' knowledge of natural plants and stimulate their motivation for natural science. Look forward to enhance students’ knowledge of biological classification and affection domain. Four classes of seventh graders (n=110) in Taiwan participate this quasi-experimental lesson. Students were assigned into “traditional group” and “mobile group”. The former was taught in traditional instructions while the latter used mobile phone and QR Code as instructional media. Students should take pre and post-tests in achievement and “The Learning Motivation Scale” during the implement of the courses.

In addition, there was no significant difference between groups on learning motivation. Most students showed positive perceptions to the courses. They indicated that the inquiry-based lesson does show the value of teaching. By using mobile phone and QR Code, it indeed made the students master the learning pace and have a better understanding of the natural world through exploration activities.
