ThingLink Teacher Challenge



Susan Oxnevad (@soxnevad) has organized the "ThingLink Teacher Challenge 2014". (Touch the image above to see the "nubbins" appear. Then touch each one to discover information about ThingLink and how to join the challenge.) This is a great opportunity for teachers to learn how to create and use ThingLink in their classrooms. Teachers and students can create interactive images that connect to either text, a photo, a video, or a link to a website. (Click here to read "
