ThingLink
What is ThingLink?
ThingLink is a free and a digital tool that allows your
students the ability to turn any image into an
interactive graphic. Create pinpoints on different parts
of an image and turn that pinpoint into a multimedia
launcher. Include video, pictures and text to make the
picture interactive. ThingLink is a great interactive tool
for your students to showcase what they have learned.
Teacher use:
Give notes and imbed pictures or videos like a webquest.
Students can work at their own pace while you monitor their progress.
