Grab Your Free ThingLink EDU Upgrade

It's no secret that ThingLink EDU is one of my favorite and most frequently used tools. I love ThingLink because it provides users with the ability to turn any image into a multimedia rich interactive graphic. Add video, images, audio, and links to any content on the web with the click of a button. Pack a lot of content into a small space and embed it into a variety of online learning platforms for easy access, 24/7. ThingLink is a user friendly and flexible tool that's just gotten better for educators!

Get Started with ThingLinkEDU Premium

Here is a bit of advice I give to all teachers who are just starting out with ThingLink. Start with something simple, something you know about. This will allow you to experience the ease of use of the tool itself without getting caught up in the power of being able to create virtually anything you can imagine for teaching and learning.
