Barcode Yourself


Year 8 Geography students, in particular, might want to look at the above website that allows you to produce a bar code for yourself.

Once you have produced your bar code, print a copy and make a note of your worth in $. To do this you must scan your bar code – click scan in the menu.

Try producing a bar code for someone living in a different country
e.g. Bangladesh.

Look at the difference in 'worth'. Why might such a difference exist?
