Local training and resell partners play a key role in this process supporting first time users with practical advice and examples.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>PowerUpEDU bridges the gap between technology and instruction by offering the most relevant and highest-value solutions, resources, professional learning, and ongoing support services for teachers, schools and districts. PowerUpEDU offers solutions to support learning across grade levels and content areas. \u00a0The addition of ThingLink\u2019s easy-to-use visual content creation platform to the solutions offerings will allow PowerUpEDU to provide districts and schools with new and engaging options for dynamic remote and traditional learning experiences.<\/p>\n<p>Given today&#8217;s unique and highly unusual circumstances, solutions that support distance or virtual learning have never been more relevant. <em>\u00a0<\/em>Maggie Phillips, Head of Professional Development and Teacher Engagement for PowerUpEDU, states, &#8220;<em>PowerUpEDU is incredibly excited to offer ThingLink, as a platform for educators to amplify learning through images, video, and virtual tours.
