Googlink as it is being called is a way to use Google Drawing to create Thinglink like interactive images. The idea is to add links to an image. These links take the viewer to additional information that will help them better understand the concepts of the poster or image that has been created. This could be a great way to present information in a gallery walk where students could scan a QR code the leads them to the image. Then they could view the resources attached. I could see this done in art where students take a picture of their creation, and then add links to information that would help the viewer better understand their work. This could include how it was created, the inspiration for the creation, and a general reflection on the process and learning that took place while creating their piece of artwork. Here are a couple examples of what this looks like. Click on the images below to open the Googlink. Here is the link that explains more of the process as shared by Eric Curts. I think this can be an amazing tool for students to demonstrate their learning in a new way. Please let me know if you have additional questions, or ideas for how to integrate this into your classroom. NOTE: When sharing the Googlink/Google Drawing, I first had to change the share settings to anyone with the link could view. I also when to the url that ends in edit and changed edit to preview. This allows people to interact with the links just by clicking on the icons you have created.
