Transform learning projects

ThingLink is ideal for a project-based approach to learning, regardless of subject matter! Our easy-to-master editor supports student-centered learning with intuitive and consistent drag-and-drop functionality. Students can create high quality interactive multimedia content to document and share their own learning journeys.

Combine interactive activities with assessment

Embed quizzes, forms and links to assess student learning, understanding and progress.

Skybox integration

Teachers and students can create virtual tours to new worlds, and recreate historical or literary contexts with the game-changing Skybox. Create escape rooms and point and click games to bring challenge and gamification to learning.

Competencies and skills development in real-world environments

Virtual tours are ideal when students need a deeper understanding of real-life situations that are otherwise out of their reach.

Interactive virtual environments created with 360° images and videos provide experiential learning in remote locations, cultures, work environments and novel social situations to develop contextual understanding and academic vocabulary.

ThingLink is the simplest way to create VR training with 360-degree videos and images of real-life situations. Create and share your virtual tours, walkthroughs and experiences anywhere, on any smartphone or mobile device. Alternatively activate VR mode to view on VR headsets.

Scenario Builder

Educators can use Scenario Based Learning (SBL) to develop technical and soft skills training. In immersive training environments that use branching scenarios, learners use role-play and problem-based learning to develop decision making, problem-solving skills and critical thinking skills - all in a safe environment.

This immersive learning process has been shown to improve knowledge retention via active learning, and prepares learners for being hands-on in the real-world context. ThingLink’s Scenario Builder is the easiest way to create interactive scenarios for any learning outcome. Learner metrics allow you to track each decision point.

Collaborative learning

A collaborative learning tool that develops teamwork and communication skills and fosters deeper learning. With a school account, individual students can collaborate on ThingLinks in classes or small groups during project-based learning (PBL) projects.

Students' XR Environment made easy

Students can create their own virtual reality and augmented reality environments. Create student-led mixed reality exhibitions and tours by creating in the ThingLink Editor and the new AR App!

The easiest virtual tour creator

Pano to 360 by ThingLink is a completely free solution that is empowering teachers and students to create virtual tours without virtual tour software or a 360-degree camera. It uses the panoramic photo functionality of any smartphone and converts the resulting jpg to a 360-degree image in an instant!
