One of Susan's favorite ed tech tools is ThingLink. Here she uses it effectively to tie ed tech tools together using common strands found in ELA Common Core and 21st century literacy skills.

I have played around with this ThingLink thing. Really cool way to have students interact and collaborate around a photo. Could link to student blog entries on a historical photo, vids, and other photos. I would use as part of an effort to help middle schoolers, particularly, develop skills of resource collection for a short research project. Consider this: Students use a photo and ThingLink as a basis for short research project.
