David Hoida, McGill University Instructor “I just wanted to let you know how successful a teaching & learning tool linkr has been for me this year at McGill… The conversations were richer than I could have hoped for. My observations (as well as the T.A.’s who evaluated the assignment), were that the quality of the submitted work was higher than one would typically expect at the undergraduate level. Many thanks for this wonderful platform. I feel like I have only scratched the surface of linkr’s potential.”
