Link List

GradeGuru Link List is a free time-saving tool for instructors and students alike. Instructors can easily create annotated reading lists with a single shortened URL to share with their students. Students can then access the assignment with one simple link. If you are working in a group and want to share a bunch of links with your comments, or save a set of online favorites with your notes for a paper that you might use later, just create a Link List, capturing the URLs as you go and Link List will provide a single destination URL.
