ThingLink

www.thinglink.com  - Touch and Discover
Probably the coolest tool I have found in a long time!  It allows you to add text, links, videos, sounds, etc to any picture.  Imagine creating an interactive image using a map, to tell a story, to engage your students, or just for fun!

This is a fantastic tool for both teachers and students.   Students can create a thinglink to show their understanding of content in a visual manner.

Here are a few links to other teacher-created resources:
  • http://www.thinglink.com/education
  • http://thinglinktoolkit.wikispaces.com/Starry+Night
  • http://thinglinktoolkit.wikispaces.com/Social+Justice+-+Civil+Rights+Movement
Here is an example of a ThingLink about the Wright Brothers first flight.
