I actually went on VoiceThread for the first time today.
For those of you who aren't familiar with VoiceThread, I shall be kind and explain. VoiceThread is basically a more interactive version of thos discussion boards you see so frequently on the internet. You get to record your voice on certain topics t hat people post, so it allows more room for expression and it's easier than typing.
Below is an embedded VoiceThread that I thought was interesting:
Although this VoiceThread includes almost no audio or thread posts at all, I thought it was interesting how things such as math concepts and equations can be taught using VoiceThread. Many kids have problems with math equations and concepts, and these kinds of VoiceThreads can be very useful for them. You can even ask questions if you'd like, and get responses for further explanation!
I think VoiceThread would be a great tool for teachers and students in all grades.
