I have tingles for Thinglink! As they say "a picture speaks a thousand words", I can't stress enough how great this tool is. This website lets you upload pictures and make them interactive by adding tags (just like Facebook I suppose) and linking them to web pages or videos.
Thinglink will get your students to brush up on their reading and listening - perhaps more on the receptive skills than productive - and have them immersed in the topics of the lesson. Hovering over the tags and scanning through the websites is so lively and entertaining for students because it's completely innovative (if you compare to boring PowerPoint slides)! You can even set up quizzes or polls that you can link to the image on Thinglink making the learning more personal and dynamic.
