VoiceThread

 

 

 

With distance and online learning teachers and educators across the country had to find a way to communicate to their classes in a way that can educate students while still keeping them engaged in the tasks. VoiceThread is a collaborative, multimedia slide show that holds images, documents, and videos and allows people to navigate slides and leave comments in 5 ways - using voice (with a mic or telephone), text, audio file, or video.  The media player can be used for businesses, and as an education resource for both K-12 and higher education learning to use pictures, videos, presentations and documents.  VoiceThread is set apart from other websites and applications because after the media is added then teachers and students can ask question while getting answer, critique each other’s work and have ongoing conversations about the presentations.

 

 

Ed.VoiceThread is the platform for teachers, schools, and districts to use to integrate into their learning of K-12.  Using the website or application can help students develop critical thinking, communication, collaboration and creativity skills.  VoiceThread will help educators accomplish speaking and listening standards and support students to increase their practice in both with self-paced participation, time for reflection, and repetition of speech. There are many features through Ed.VoiceThread where students learn about presentation, global collaboration, commenting, creating, sharing and even annotating.
