Using ThingLink instead of email
Now we can use ThingLink instead of email accounts for children under 13. The teacher can register and list the students under the teacher account. The system works the same with email but without any of the social problems that come with traditional email. Free Tech 4 Teachers blog site by Richard Byrne describes the interactive site that can offer the teacher monitoring. In order to register it is important that you register as a teacher and use ThingLink.edu.
Here is the slide presentation that Richard Byrne has developed to walk you through the process of forming email with Thinglink.edu. This site is also useful in making interactive pictures and charts with adding video and audio to the pictures from piccollage and picmonkey for tablet use.
