Week 5, Thing# 12

VoiceThread is a very interesting tool. This first educational use I thought of when learning of this was for our youngest students (pre-writers) to dictate what they were thinking of when they created their artistic masterpieces. I think the applications for this technology are endless. It could even be used as an informal "book review" by using the image of the assigned book. Instead of written book reports, the students could comment on the book either orally or in text using Voicethread.

  1. I have to agree that the uses of VT in curriculum are amazing. The collaborative nature and the ability of students to explain their thinking is very powerful. It is so easy to use as well.

    What do you think the safety issues are with VT?
