• Go to ThingLink.com and log on
• Select the course VR Learning UAB
• Focus on tasks 1 to 3
• In order to edit the images you need to click the clone button – it pops up after clicking the three dots next to the share button
• Your aim is more on familiarizing yourselves with the different functionalities and less on developing appropriate content (of course you can still record audio files that fit to the pictures)
• Try out to upload images, audio files and create new links between the pictures
• Customize the hotspots
• You will notice that the system requires you to also upload an image when you try to integrate an audio file
• The system provides the option to integrate ‚atmospheric audio files‘ that start automatically when accessing the image – try to integrate an audio file in such a way
• Paste the links to your results into the comment section
