Research findings

"ThingLink is relatively simple for students to master and is a highly effective tool that can be used to enhance and assess students' ability…and to engage students in the course material."

From: Fostering Student Engagement with Digital Microscopic Images Using ThingLink, an image Annotation Programme by Pierette Apasamy Journal of College Science Teaching Vol 47May/June 2018
